Crossing Brooklyn Ferry …” The Connection “
During the whole “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry” tour, the stop that actually touched me was the water taxi/ bklyn ferry stop. Our tour guides told us that back then in the 19Th century Brooklyn and the city weren’t really connected. The people that lived in Brooklyn usually stayed in Brooklyn and the people who lived in Manhattan, stayed there as well. The ferry was the only connection between the two because the subway system wasn’t build yet. This made me think and realize that i kind of take advantage of the MTA and my city… I go back and forth to these places without even knowing that there was a time transportation wasn’t given and access was limited. The last time i took the ferry was when i was 7.. When it gets warmer, i will take the ferry to Manhattan and appreciate it!
