The Brooklyn and New York Ferry Company was a ferry company that operated between Manhattan and Brooklyn, New York City, United States.

History

The Williamsburgh Ferry Company was established in 1824, taking over the existing Grand Street Ferry.[1][2]

In early January 1886, the property of the New York Ferry Company was transferred to the new Brooklyn and New York Ferry Company.[3]
