I tried out the new East River ferry service the other day. It’s free for one more week, after that it’s $4 a ride. Don’t know if this will be a good deal for cyclists, but the views from the ferry can’t be beat. This is a panorama of the new pier at the end of India Street in Greenpoint. Click on the picture for a high-resolution view. You’ll notice my old friend, Randy Ross Stepper man, from this post.
