I hear that Governor Cuomo plans to use the island to build a facility to carry out his own sick experiments on recently layed off state workers. Would be a great location for an Old Country Buffet instead!
You all can thank the assholes Nita Lowry and Andy span fir wasting 30 million dollars if our money to knock down all the buildings. We can't keep hospitals open. Teachers are getting laid off. Mt Vernon and Yonkers need serious help with gangs and drug dealers. And a bunch of buildings is more important, great state we live in!
On the north side of island is a small beach that makes it easy to ride up onto with the boat. We generally anchor off the shore for awhile waiting until there a minimal amount of boats in site. The very first time we tried going on a patrol boat stopped us as soon as we stepped off the boat but since then we've had no problems.
Greetings from a former New Yorker! Great video! I liked the footage in the garage with the old cars. I only explored Fort Slocum once about 25 years ago. Sadly, it looks like it's being demolished according to the aerial photos I've seen.
