Wikipedia: Part of the Memorial is built on land that was once part of Coenties Slip, an artificial inlet in the East River for the loading and unloading of ships that was land-filled in 1835.

It's almost unknown to typical tourist , who usually takes shortest ruote between staten island ferry and wall street. It's a pity, it is so touching in its semplicity.

Great place to spend your lunch on a hot day, because of the breeze off the water.

Nice shady spot for lunch , but the helicopter traffic is constant and noisy .
