    We waited in a long line for the sole ticket vending machine, not realizing we could have purchased tickets on our phones or from some very nice people further down the dock.

    The ferry stops at Wall St, Bklyn Bridge Park, Midtown, Williamsburg & Gov's Island. If you catch it off-hours, the subway is nearby: A,C train at High St or F train at York St. - Green Guide Editor

    Take the ferry from one of the stops for 4$. Nice way to have a cheap ride over the river and to cool down on a warm summer day. And it also gets you to your destination ;)

    A great place to drop the, "You know, East River is not a river, but a saltwater tidal strait. Thus making this a strait ferry."

    The East River Ferry is by far and away the best transportation method if you are going from DUMBO to Williamsburg or E. Midtown. And it's not bad for proposals either...

    The ticket machine is by Fulton Street and the lemonade place!! Make sure you get your tickets before trying to get on the ferry!

    Runs every half hour. Check the schedule before you leave to avoid wait especially when the weather cools (i.e. unpleasant wait by the river in cold weather)

    Well-used Port-a-Potties are the best you can expect to find, so complain to public officials accordingly. Their lack seems deliberate.

    Truly awful. Not clear where you're supposed to wait. Apparently there are two lines depending on direction. The guys manning the gate are jobsworths!
