The Staten Island Ferry has been a municipal service since 1905. It currently carries over 21 million passengers annually on a 5.2-mile run between the St. George Terminal in Staten Island and the Whitehall Terminal in lower Manhattan. Service is offered 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The Staten Island Ferry is the most reliable form of mass transit, with an on-time performance of over 96 percent.

This ferry loads in Battery Park at the foot of Whitehall Street.
