St. George, Staten Island

The Andrew J. Barberi hit a concrete maintenance pier at full speed on an afternoon run, killing eleven passengers and injuring seventy. The pilot was impaired by painkillers and the city rule requiring a second pilot in the wheelhouse for docking had not been enforced. The pilot and the ferry director both pleaded guilty to seaman's manslaughter.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
