The ferry remained docked since the late 60s / early 70s but was meticulously maintained and used as a restaurant afloat on the Hudson. It had an awesome dance floor and bar and was a cool place to hangout and bring dates or meet chicks. I was last there sometime in the late 90s and they had just done additional refurbishing and the place looked better than ever. Seems it all went downhill after the owner was murdered...
