New Astoria Ferry: Open Hours with NYC Ferry staff

The countdown is on till the start of the NYC Ferry service in Astoria on August 29th. A new route servicing the Rockaways has proved very popular. NYC Ferry staff will hold open office hours about the new ferry service at the Noguchi Museum, 9-01 33rd Road, on Thursday August 17 from 3 to 7 pm. This is not a formal event; the open hours are for the community to stop by and ask any questions about the new ferry service you may have. Apologies for any confusion caused.

The new route will run from Astoria (30th Road and Vernon Blvd) to Roosevelt Island, Gantry Plaza State
Park, East 34th St in Manhattan, and Wall Street. The Museum is at 9-01 33rd Road. If you can’t make it to the open office hours at the Noguchi Museum, you can e-mail your questions to community@ferry.nyc.
