Tuscarora Almanac - June 30, 2007 - The Book of Last Runs (Maritime Division)


The Staten Island ferryboat THE GOV.HERBERT H LEHMAN ended forty two years of service today with the 10:30 PM departure from Whitehall Street.

The vessel was tied up at a shipyard on the KIll Van Kull while work was underway to convert her to a restaurant. The plans never came to fruition though and she was subsequently towed to the Steelways Shipyard in Newburgh, New York and was scrapped.

Thanks. But I actually thought this occurred a year earlier, on 6-30-06... no?

2007 is correct. A couple of sources verify this including the Staten Island Advance. I can say that the vessel is now completely scrapped. Her hull was still intact until 2014 but now its gone.
