Ferry Service To Lower Manhattan Coming To Rockland

Rockland County, NY - Starting in spring 2007, Rockland and Westchester commuters can leave traffic tie-ups in their wake as they speed to lower Manhattan by ferry.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey awarded a $4.2 million, two-year contract that will allow New York Water Taxi to run the subsidized ferry service. Commuters from Rockland can travel from the terminal in Haverstraw village by ferry, via a stop in Yonkers, to the financial district on Manhattan's West Side or down to Pier 11, near Wall Street.
