Ferry service will now connect St. George and Bay Ridge starting Monday.<\/p>\n
Riders in parts of South Brooklyn are also getting upgrades including new service straight to Midtown Manhattan. <\/p>\n
Commuters DB Lampman says her commute is now much easier. <\/p>\n
\u201cNormally to get here I normally have to take a really long route to get here via the ferry or subway to get here. So, it’s nice to not have to drive. And I got here this morning in10 minutes, and I have a quick 10-minute walk to work. And on my way home,\u201d said Lampman.<\/p>\n
The city says a new ferry landing is also being designed in Sunset Park, in hopes of giving Brooklyn residents even more options. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ferry service will now connect St. George and Bay Ridge starting Monday.
