79th Street Boat Basin information


Boat Basin as seen from Guttenberg, New Jersey across the Hudson River

The 79th Street Boat Basin is a marina located in the Hudson River on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City, within Riverside Park at the western end of 79th Street. Maintained and operated by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, it is the only facility in the city that allows year-round residency in boats, so it's known as a hub for houseboat living in NYC.[1][2]
