After the attacks of September 11th, thousands of commuters remained stranded near ground zero in Manhattan. With the bridges and tunnels closed, SeaStreak commuter ferry became a lifeline, taxi'ing evacuees across the river into Monmouth County, New Jersey. And while commuters rode the ferry back to Jersey to get away from the devastation, first responders from Monmouth County would take the ride back to ground zero to assist in recovery efforts. These are the stories of the New Jersey heroes of 9/11.
