Governor's Island July 21, 2007

This is my most recent trip to Governor's Island and on one of the most beautiful days all year long.

Oh no a mid-size wall stands in my way.

Directions to the Governors Island Ferry

The Governors Island Ferry departs from the Battery Maritime Building located adjacent to the Staten Island Ferry in Lower Manhattan.
Admission: Free

On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, visitors to the Island can take a guided tour with the National Park Service. Ferries for guided tours leave the Battery Maritime Building at 10 AM and 1 PM.

Whew! It's only a few feet long.

Nice windows and bricks.

Side view, not as clean.

Must be a religious place, notice the star.

The box for posting service times.

Again the side that the public is not supposed to see.

Columns. I used to know what these house styles were called, really.

Let's get closer.

Closer still.

And that's as far as we can go inside.

Turned around saw these plants.

More houses and flowers.























This is new.

A horse made of tires and wires.





































Beautiful view looking back to Manhattan.
