This summer ferry service NY Waterway between Manhattan and Newport in Jersey city (NJ) will resume, — said the representatives of the company Newport Associates Development Company.
The press Secretary noted that this step is dictated by the increased demand for ferry service. Over the past few years in Newport appeared more than 1,000 new residents.

Was offered an alternative site and NY Waterway has applied for the necessary permits, but the ferry company refused to build a new terminal.
