Gothamist did a double take last night when we noticed the Staten Island Ferry on the Hudson River. Our hypothesis was that it might be a new ferry, on it way from the Manitowoc Marine Group in Wisconsin, but maybe it was a special treat for uptown New Yorkers to see the big orange vessel.
More ferry information from SIFerry.com.
