As I’ve heard this is to be taken down by 2010, it is something I have wanted to do for a while now. Also wanted to see Roosevelt Island since it was mentioned in the movie Dark Water (2005) with Jennifer Connelly. After Liberty state park, we took the ferry to Manhattan and headed up to 59th & Lexington to find the tram. We ended up taking the F train to Roosevelt Island so we only rode the tram back to Manhattan. It was $2.00 each way, but we used our Metro cards. The view from the tram across the river was beautiful. I cannot wait to take the boys. I think Brady and Andrew will love it. For history see:
