The last time I went to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal was to go home (please note the sarcasm). The only reason it’s worth visiting is if you’re going home, or want to see (the unguided tourist tour of) the Statue of Liberty, Governor’s Island, Ellis Island, Downtown Manhattan, Brooklyn, miscellaneous bridges, New Jersey power plants, and of course, Staten Island itself, from afar (that is- until you get to the Staten Island side… then you can see it all in reverse).
