Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The Dyckman Street Boat Marina or simply the Dyckman Marina, located at the base of Dyckman Street on the Hudson River in the Inwood neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, was the site where, from 1915-1942, ferries carrying cars and passengers ran to the beaches along the Palisades on the New Jersey side of the River, operated by the Englewood-Dyckman Company. With the coming of the George Washington Bridge, ferry service fell off and was discontinued, and the dock fell into disrepair. Assigned to the New York City Parks Department in 1966, a deal was struck with Dyckman Marine Ventures in 1987 to develop the derelict marina, in return for free rent. A Federal grant aided the project, which cost $420,000 and took two years to complete; the park was enhanced with the pier at the foot of Dyckman Street in 1995. Facilities now include docks and a fishing pier, public restrooms and a restaurant and bar.
