A heavily used marine channel, it provides access for ocean-going container ships to Port Newark and to industrial facilities along the channel itself. It also provides the primary marine access to the now-closed Fresh Kills Landfill on Staten Island and is the location of the Staten Island boat graveyard.
The channel is dredged periodically to a depth of 35–37feet (11m) and a width of 600feet (183m) to maintain its usefulness for commercial ship passage. As part of its Harboring Deepening Project, the Kill is being deepened to a depth of 50 feet to accommodate larger ships and allow for their passage while carrying full loads.
This station will be accessible to disabled persons and include a 150-car parking lot on property owned by SIR. It will have two tracks and two side platforms, with an overpass connecting the platforms.
History
The station was expected to be complete by 2010, but was delayed due to a lack of funding in the capital program. A groundbreaking ceremony was held on October 18, 2013, with the opening date projected to be in 2015. However, the latest projected opening date is April 2016.
