The History of the Staten Island Ferry

Описание к видео The History of the Staten Island Ferry

Most people do not realize that ferries have existed to and from Staten Island since the time of the Lenape. As the island evolved and its transportation system became more elaborate the ferries that operated also changed. This video features more than 400 years of Staten Island ferry service, and it includes the entrepreneurs involved, the ferryboats themselves, and the landings that existed all around this once isolated island.

This lecture by historian Patricia Salmon originally aired on January 29, 2021.
