Staten Island Railway
St George
Staten Island
The Staten Island Ferry — Free, twenty-five minutes, and it passes the Statue of Liberty both ways — the best view in New York that costs nothing. The St. George Theatre and Snug Harbor are both a short way from the terminal.
“Where the ferry meets the train. The whole island starts here.”Antoine

Tottenville — The southernmost point of New York State. The Conference House at the end of the island is where Benjamin Franklin and John Adams met Lord Howe on 11 September 1776, in the only peace conference of the Revolutionary War. It failed, and the war ran another seven years.
