That's near the intersection of Coffey and Ferris Sts. in Red Hook. You can see it in this GoogleMap.

Yeah, that's Red Hook. I think it's off a small park off Ferris St. If you go to the end of the pier, the southern end of Governor's Island looks close enough to swim to. Immediately to the left, there's an old 19th Century brick warehouse that looked like it was turned into condos the last time I was there.

Except for the G, to get to any other Borough, you have go through Manhattan. I don't know any other train system that’s like that. I guess we have to live with it.

Why do people ignore a perfectly good bus system? (Well, not perfectly good, but useful.) If I read the person's blog right, she could have taken the B61 to Williamsburg and then taken the Q54 directly to Jamaica Station. Simple.
