The Staten Island Ferry: A History
Wednesday, January 8 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Ferries to and from Staten Island have existed for thousands of years. As the Island evolved, and its transportation system became more elaborate, the ferries that operated also changed. We will discuss more than 400 years of Staten Island ferry service, including the entrepreneurs involved, the ferryboats themselves, and the landings that existed all around this once-isolated island. Take a ride through time!
Wednesday, January 8, 2025, 6:30 PM.
Please arrive ten minutes before the start of the program.
Saint Alban’s Church, 76 Saint Alban’s Place, Eltingville, Staten Island, NY 10312
