Staten island Ferry

I just read several comments on the FREE Ferry. I think that is what we will do instead of taking so long to go over to the Island. Now I need to know where to go to catch the Ferry. Is it at the same place as the Liberty Island Ferry? I think that is pier 83 down at Battery Park, am I right? Thanks for your help.

Staten island Ferry

I don%26#39;t know what ';Island'; you mean; Staten Island is an island, as is Manhattan Island, and Long Island where you find Brooklyn and Queens. Are you perhaps referring to the Statue of Liberty ferry?

The Staten Island Ferry -- which is much, much bigger than the boats to the statue -- leaves from the Staten Island Ferry terminal. Since it isn%26#39;t the same boat, and doesn%26#39;t go to the same place, why would it leave from the Statue of Liberty ferry pier?

Pier 83 is not at Battery Park. Pier 83 is in Midtown Manhattan, on the Hudson River at the end of 43rd Street; you will find the Circle Line boats (but neither the Staten Island nor the Statue of Liberty ferries) there.

The Statue of Liberty ferry leaves from Battery Park behind Castle Clinton. The Whitehall Terminal of the Staten Island Ferry is at the place where State, Whitehall, and Water Streets run into each other.

You really may want to look at a map....

No, the SIF is a bit further south from LIF. About 2-3 min walk.

Here%26#39;s a map. Look at the tip. LIF is near Castle Clinton on the map, while SIF is at ';Ferry terminal'; Just walk a little more along and around the tip of Battery Park.

Yes, it is FREE which is a deal because a few years ago it cost $0.25 Apparently the first ferry service, which was private, bet SI %26amp; NYC began in the 1700%26#39;s, with a regular ferry in 1817.

It is great. Esp near sunset.
