Built for the Hoboken Ferry Company and launched in 1905, the ferryboat Binghamton traveled the Hudson River between Hoboken and Manhattan at Barclay St. for 62 years. This double-ender steamboat was designed to carry 986 passengers and a number of vehicles. It remained in operation until 1967, when all ferry service on the river ceased. Moored here in 1975, the Binghamton was converted to a restaurant, and the vessel was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
