The 330-foot car float barge Liberty was removed from the Hudson River in sections to clear space for a new ferry terminal at Liberty State Park. Since 2005, Liberty was used at the park as a floating dock for ferries transiting to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. It sank in a storm in 2020.
