Hop the Ferry to Governor’s Island from Brooklyn
A water taxi in New York Harbor
This just in: an announcement at 10am tomorrow will bring news of the construction of a new pier on the Brooklyn waterfront offering direct ferry service between Brooklyn and Governor’s Island. Elected officials will gather at Pier 6 in Brooklyn Bridge Park tomorrow morning to take pictures of themselves likely in front of shovels, probably wearing hard hats.
On a recent exploration of the island, Brooklyn The Borough had to take a train into Manhattan, where the ferry operates every half hour or so on the weekends. According to a state website, ferry service operates between Brooklyn and Governor’s Island on days when there are scheduled events.
