Second Municipal Ferry Brought Under City Control
The Sinking Fund Commission voted to municipalize the Thirty ninth Street ferry line to South Brooklyn, aligning with Staten Island ferry operations. The plan covers acquiring waterfront property and terminal facilities in Manhattan and ongoing operation under the Commissioner of Docks and Ferries, using old Staten Island boats until new vessels are built. If sale terms fail, condemnation would proceed, delaying service by about three years.
