Tuscarora Almanac - April 18, 1988 - The Book of First Runs (Maritime Division)

The New York City Department of Transportation begins operation of the "Williamsburg Express Ferry" between the Whitehall Street Ferry Terminal in lower Manhattan and the Kent Avenue Pier in Brooklyn. This is being done in response to emergency repairs on the Williamsburg Bridge . The two smallest vessels in the Staten Island Fleet, the ALICE AUSTIN and the JOHN A NOBLE are used for this service . Service ended on June 10, 1988.

This was the first time since the mid 1960's that a municipal ferry service had run on the East River.


Larry, RedbirdR33
