Nyack Needs A Ferry!
We, residents of Nyack and surrounding communities, ask that New York State allow and assist Nyack in continuing its illustrious history of river transportation, implementing ferry service to Tarrytown and Manhattan.
Why is this important?
Rockland County is the second highest taxed county in the nation, and yet we have practically no mass transit options into New York City. Our current real estate values do not keep pace with Westchester, and are not in sync with the taxes we pay. A ferry from Nyack to Westchester and Manhattan would be an excellent first step toward the mass transit requirements that Rockland County needs and deserves.
