How locals move

Getting around Woodlawn the local way

  • Get aroundIf you happen to be staying in or venturing to the southeast Bronx, consider taking a NYC Ferry to the Soundview (connections to buses Bx39 and Bx27) or Throgs Neck docks (free parking) for a more unique experience than riding the subway underground (you'll do plenty of that in NYC).
  • Get aroundIf the salt water views are making you thirsty, grab a drink at the ferry's snack bar.
  • Get aroundThe fare is a flat $4 with free transfers to other ferries for 120 minutes.
  • Get aroundCheck the official NYC Ferry website for current maps and schedules.
