SIRT - Jefferson Avenue Station, Staten Island, New York
I'm leaving Staten Island in just 16 days. It's weird. I wasn't born here (born in the Bronx), but I definitely grew up here. I'll be about an hour away, but now that seems like another continent, because even when I wasn't really here, I always had a place to come back to. Whether it was Florida, Brooklyn, Manhattan or Queens, I'd always at some point return to Staten Island. Now that is over...what awaits? Here is my train station for my commute to Manhattan for so many years past. (I ended up giving up on the train and ferry for an express bus around '94, but this is the place where the trek to Manhattan initially started.)
