Staten Island Ferry Area | New York City | 2009

Here are some shots I took of the structure near the entrance to the Staten Island Ferry.  We always take the Ferry across as it is $8 to park all day there and of course free to ride the ferry.  It is free to park on Sundays (as of 2012), though the website does not indicate that! Staten Island is not hard to drive in once you get to it.  It cuts down on any stress thinking about driving in Manhattan. The parking lot of the ferry is tricky to get into and I missed it once or twice.  It is also under constant construction. Not sure what is taking so long to wrap it up as its been under construction for 4 years now.

This structure from a distance resembles the hat of the Statue of Liberty.  We just noticed that after probably 10 trips to the ferry. I don't know if that is by design or accident.
