A crowded Staten Island Ferry operated by New York City’s Department of Marine and Aviation crosses the harbor between Manhattan and Staten Island. The vessel carries the red paint scheme used before the ferries adopted their familiar orange appearance, while the New Jersey shoreline can be seen faintly in the background. The Department of Marine and Aviation was the city agency responsible for the ferry system during this period.
