Traveling to Governors Island

NEW YORK - JULY 17: Tourists travel on a ferry boat July 17, 2011 from a Brooklyn pier to Governors Island, across New York Harbor at the tip of lower Manhattan. Control of the 22-acre Governors Island was transferred from the Federal Government to New York City in 2002 and is operated by the National Park Service. Before the attack on 9-11, the twin towers of the World Trade Center stood in the upper left corner. A new tower is under construction and half completed. (Photo by Robert Nickelsberg/Getty Images)
