The Battery Park City Ferry Terminal provides slips to ferries, water taxis, and sightseeing boats in the Port of New York and New Jersey. The floating dock is located on the Hudson River and moored at the foot of Vesey Street in Hudson River Park in Battery Park City, Manhattan. It is near the World Financial Center, which in local nomenclature lends it name to such terms as World Financial Center ferry, WFC Ferry Terminal and the like used before and since the opening. Commissioned by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey which owns it, the facility opened 2009 to replace a landing to which service began in 1989.〔 〕 There are four bow-loading and two side loading slips at the terminal. The mono-hull structure is the largest of its type in the world, covering acres, its two towers anchored to bedrock 75 feet below the water's surface. The terminal is used by private operators NY Waterway, which originally started service in 1989, and Liberty Water Taxi.〔(Statue Cruises|Liberty Water Taxi )〕 Goldman Sachs commissions two ferries between its offices on either side of the river, which are used by both employees and non-employees. SeaStreak operates peak hour shuttle service to Pier 11/Wall Street for connecting service to the Raritan Bayshore. Since June 2013, ferries using the terminal, in accordance with the previously disregarded Rule 34(a)(i) (which prescribes maneuvering and warning signals), sound their horns to indicate their actions, creating what many local residents perceive as noise pollution. ==Service== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Battery Park City Ferry Terminal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
