Expanded Red Hook Ferry Service begins near Fairway, IKEA
Expanded ferry service from Manhattan to Red Hook has rolled out for the summer, and includes two boats operating weekends from 10 a.m. – 9 p.m.
The ferry runs from Pier 11 in Manhattan to a dock right behind Fairway Market at 480-500 Van Brunt Street in Red Hook, and then on to the IKEA store, close to local Red Hook shops and restaurants. The boats run every 25 minutes.
The Van Brunt Street stop takes advantage of an existing currently unused ferry landing, connecting visitors to the Red Hook’s commercial corridor and the businesses impacted by Hurricane Sandy.
