Yo, ho, ho and a bottle of rum! Mayor DeBlasio’s new city-wide ferry service will serve booze on board, officials said on Wednesday — adopting a popular feature of the Staten Island Ferry. But do Brooklyn’s seafaring straphangers want to commute to work in a floating bar? We asked them:
On the New Jersey transit I saw beer, and that is already not good for me. All alcohol should be prohibited — this is my opinion. No drugs, no other things. We stopped using cigarettes in official places, so no alcohol, nothing.
I guess it would be good for the economy, all the tourists would ride it more. But as a commuter that could be kind of annoying, imagining it on a daily basis, if you have to fight through crowds of people drinking. Maybe they ought to keep it for the weekends, or during certain times.
