In this photo there is no sign of the stations and platforms built in 1915. In the background is the outline of the Beacon Newburgh bridge which drove the ferry out of business in 1963.

In 2005 the passenger ferry service has been revived and seems to be doing well with commuters who take the Metro North trains to New York City.
