News 12 spoke to one of the first commuters going to Wall Street.

"I'm excited," said Fred Arce of East Brunwick, "It's great for me because I used to bring my scooter. I had to take my scooter to Brookfield Place and ride it all the way over to Wall Street."

The ferries are still operating from a temporary dock, a new terminal is in the works.
