"Anything you could possibly want is here from the ferry access to museum"

Got off the ferry and landed on this road, headed east , though there is heavy traffic weekday mornings and evenings from commuters the lights work well and keep traffic from getting to bottled up. If your into the nautical life there are several stops you need to make, such as Port Ivory and down the road a bit to Mariners harbor. Lots of tugs, commercial fishing boats and quite a few sail boats in and out of the area depending on the tide. It also sports one of the best markets for meat in the area, Wolf meat Market has both kosher and non kosher meats, as well as seafood most days. If the kids need a place to burn off energy and maybe even learn something the Childrens Museum would be a great stop as well. Sights along the way is alot of industrial bldgs, eatteries, warehouse and even some really nice apartment/condo complexes. Walking at night in the east end and by the ferries didnt seem to scarey alot of police were visible. Regular bus and taxis were readily available.

"Great Section of Staten Island"

Particularly, I am talking about the Richmond Terrace section between Lafayette Street and Bard Avenue.

The public transit is ok - with the new service cuts the S40 has been affected, but it isn't terrible.

Richmond Terrace is right along the water, so you can see the cargo ships coming into Bayonne, which is pretty cool.

The Farmer's Market has wide selection of fresh produce imported from New Jersey at pretty reasonable prices.

R.H. Tugg's restaurant at Richmond Terrace and Bard Avenue has tasty food, a nice ambiance and pretty views of the water.

Snug Harbor Cultural Center is the gem of Staten Island, between the large gardens, children's museum, Chinese garden, and other events, I think that Snug Harbor is definitely worth a visit.

"Everything You Need"

Richmond Terrace is a gateway to lots of fun things to do on Staten Island. It offers lots of shopping, restaurants and bars, along with beautiful views of the Hudson River. The street is pretty clean and usually not to congested compared to some other places on Staten Island. I would buy on this street at it has a lot to offer families and consumers alike.

"The Great Atmosphere."

Schuyler Street – You can find this smallest street between the junction of Stuyvesant P1 and Richardmond terrace and close neighbourhood of St. Georgia. They have good , reasonably priced for food and drinks like Beso and Side Street Saloon, where you always feel welcomed by the employees and the locals that frequent this charming bar/restaurant. Their food portions are large and always delicious. They have a lot of activities such as listening live music, etc. If you want to see a magnificent view of New York City, just go to Staten Island ferry which is nearby St. George Station. Have fun and enjoy with great atmosphere.

"Stuyvesant Place, Staten Island, New York"

One of the places I visited on Stuyvesant Place was the Staten Island Museum. It consists of New Yorks art, science, and history. I found it very interesting. History lovers would love this place. New Yorkers love this place. It is also located near the ferry.
The admission to the museum is only $2 but well worth it. It is the main attraction on this street. My husbands favorite exhibits were the insects especially the spiders. We had a nice a time and learned a lot about New York here.

"Good Tasty Food"

Schuyler street, is one of the smallest streets in the neighbourhood of St. Georgia. The street is the junction between Richardmond terrace and Stuyvesant Pl. Since the street is small the population here is also small. The address range numbering of this street is from 1 to 29. St George a beautiful building is situated on the sides of this street. Beso, one of the famous restaraunts in Staten Island, adds additional beauty to this street. Beso is like an heaven for the food lover. You can’t experience it all in one day!

"A short street near the station."

Schuyler Street is a short street near the Saint George Station for the station island ferry. It is home to Beso a great mexican restaurant with a great atmosphere. They sometimes have live music. Also home to the Side Street Saloon, featured on NBC. Schuyler is also home to the D.M.V. so it is a must stop sometimes for residents.

"Richmond Terrace in Staten Island, New York"

For a large dose of culture as well as entertainment, I recommend visiting the Staten Island Snug Harbor Cultural Center. The Cultural Center features museums, a few theaters, and mesmerizing gardens. I recommend packing a picnic lunch to eat outdoors in the villa, or grabbing a bite at Neptune's Bistro within the center, and attending a visual or performing arts performance. The Cultural Center also holds seasonal festivals and educational programs.

"Best little street on the islan"

Stuyvesant Pl is wonderful. We have a police station on my across the street along with a federal courthouse, Borough Hall as well. The ferry terminal is down the block across the street. We have pretty much everything here except for video stores, big box drug store and a supermarket (Mostly bodegas and small groceries) As for food Beso is around the corner and cargo is three blocks away, Ruddy and Deans is also around the corner.

We also have the Staten Island Yankees baseball stadium across the street.
