SIUH Community Park has the best backdrop in professional baseball: the Lower Manhattan skyline and the harbour sit directly over the outfield wall, five minutes' walk from the ferry terminal. The FerryHawks play Atlantic League ball against the York Revolution, and this home date closes with a glow run around the bases. If you want a cheap summer night out that starts with a free ferry ride past the Statue of Liberty, this is it.
What to expect
A compact 7,000-seat park where every seat is close to the field. The skyline is best from the first-base side and the concourse behind home. Post-game, families are let onto the field for the glow run. The ferry terminal is a short walk away, so the trip home is easy.
Good to know
- The Staten Island Ferry is free and lands a five-minute walk from the ballpark
- First-base side and the home-plate concourse give the best Manhattan skyline views
- Corner sections 1-4 and 14-17 carry the cheapest tickets
- Bring a light layer; the harbour wind picks up after sunset
- Check the ferry timetable for the return trip before the ninth inning
- Very family-friendly; the park is small enough that kids can roam within sight
