Subway: Take the 4 or 5 to Bowling Green, the 1 to South Ferry, or the R or W to Whitehall Street. Finish: African Burial Ground. Time: Approximately 3 hours. Best Time: Any weekday, when the wheels of finance are spin- ningCOPYRIGHTED and lower Manhattan is a maelstrom MATERIAL of activity. Worst Time: Weekends, when most buildings and all the finan- cial markets are closed. The narrow, winding streets of the Financial District occupy the earliest-settled area of 7 05_773395 ch01.qxd 2/6/06 7:39 PM Page 8 8 • Memorable Walks in New York Manhattan, where Dutch settlers established the colony of Nieuw Amsterdam in the early 17th century. Before their arrival, downtown was part of a vast forest, a lush hunting ground for Native Americans that was inhabited by mountain lions, bobcats, beavers, white-tailed deer, and wild turkeys. Hunters followed the Wiechquaekeck Trail, a path through the center that today is more often referred to as Broadway. This section of the city still centers on commerce, much as Nieuw Amsterdam did. Wall Street is America’s strongest symbol of money and power; bulls and bears have replaced the wild beasts of the forest, and conservatively attired lawyers, stockbrokers, bankers, and businesspeople have supplanted the Native Americans and Dutch who once traded otter skins and beaver pelts on these very streets. A highlight of this tour is the Financial District’s architec- ture, in which the neighborhood’s modern edifices and grand historical structures are dramatically juxtaposed: Colonial, 18th-century Georgian/Federal, and 19th-century neoclassical buildings stand in the shadow of colossal modern skyscrapers.

Atlantic Avenue
A Guide to Historic New York City Neighborhoods A TL A NTIC A VENUE BROOKLYN The Historic Districts Council is New York’s citywide advocate for historic buildings and neighborhoods. The Six to Celebrate program annually identifies six historic New York City neighborhoods that merit preservation as priorities for HDC’s advocacy and consultation over a yearlong period. The six, chosen from applications submitted by community organizations, are selected on the basis of the architectural and historic merit of the area, the level of threat to the neighborhood, the strength and willingness of the local advocates, and the potential for HDC’s preservation support to be meaningful. HDC works with these neighborhood partners to set and reach preservation goals through strategic planning, advocacy, outreach, programs and publicity. The core belief of the Historic Districts Council is that preservation and enhancement of New York City’s historic resources—its neighborhoods, buildings, parks and public spaces— are central to the continued success of the city. The Historic Districts Council works to ensure the preservation of these resources and uphold the New York City Landmarks Law and to further the preservation ethic. This mission is accomplished through ongoing programs of assistance to more than 500 community and neighborhood groups and through public-policy initiatives, publications, educational outreach and sponsorship of community events. Support is provided in part by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

05/31/2019 South Ferry Report (PDF)
SUFFOLK COUNTY LEGISLATURE Robert Lipp BUDGET REVIEW OFFICE Director May 31, 2019 Honorable DuWayne Gregory, Presiding Officer, and Members of the Suffolk County Legislature William H. Rogers Legislature Building 725 Veterans Memorial Highway Smithtown, New York 11787 Dear Legislators: The attached report presents the Budget Review Office analysis of the financial and statistical data presented by South Ferry Company, Inc. in support of its petition for a rate increase in 2019. Procedural Motion No. 17-2019 authorizes the public hearings for the rate approval, and if adopted, Introductory Resolution No. 1534-2019 authorizes the requested rate increases. The Budget Review Office conducted a thorough review of the certified and audited financial statements prepared by an accountant with satisfactory peer review status. South Ferry Company, Inc. last received a rate increase in 2012. The petitioner requests an increase in most fare categories; the average increase is 9.81%. Some round trip fares have been reduced as part of the restructuring of truck rates. The largest requested increase, of 100%, is for the non-resident passenger fare, which increases from $1.00 to $2.00. The largest dollar increase is for the one-way fare for a tank truck carrying more than 2,500 gallons. The casual traveler and commercial truck traffic continue to subsidize resident travel as they have historically, and as is typical for any ferry and bridge travelers; the petition raises resident rates, but raises casual traveler fares more. The Budget Review Office recommends that the applicant’s request for a rate increase be approved. Given the company’s financial statements and projections, the rate increase is reasonable, especially given rising costs for fuel and personnel, and the continuous need for capital improvements to the vessels and landings.
