NYC Ferry Will Expand to All Five Boroughs in 2020

The de Blasio administration announced an expansion of NYC Ferry service to all five boroughs in 2020. The expansion includes the addition of two new routes that will run from Staten Island and Coney Island, plus the modification of two existing routes to include new stops in the Bronx and Brooklyn, including the Dock 72 stop that was announced Monday.

“As New Yorkers take to the water to get around our city more than ever before, we will look forward to improving the NYC Ferry system to make it better than ever,” said Mayor Bill de Blasio.

“Expansion of the system means getting even more New Yorkers where they need to go, increasing access to good-paying jobs, schools, and other neighborhoods, all for the price of a subway ride,” said James Patchett, New York City Economic Development President and CEO. NYC Ferry service was launched in May of 2017.
