This area of the New York City Waterfront is where all the great Ocean Liners docked after their TransAtlantic Crossings from Europe. These ships carried thousands of families, their worldly possessions packed in suitcases, full of hopes and dreams to start a new life here at the great Port of New York-- GATEWAY TO AMERICA. ![]() Ocean Liner Row New York Harbor circa 1936 I hope that this precious part of our Maritime History can be preserved and safeguarded so that future generations will be able to enjoy these international treasures.
