Description

Take a trip on the public ferry and experience the architectural wonders along the East River.
Take it all in: panoramic views of Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan, experience the long warehouse tradition of DUMBO, get excited about the architectural race for the tallest skyscraper, learn who really built the Brooklyn Bridge (spoiler: The engineer was female), hear about the scandalous life in Five Pointz and Corlears Hook, listen to stories about Robert Moses and his plans to destroy lower Manhattan, imagine the life of the Navy Yard worker during 2nd World War, and disembark in Williamsburg and have an artisanal ice cream. 


Coordinate a date and take up to 5-6 people with you on the boat.


(Ferry ticket and ice cream not included) Children welcome!
