About Governors Island Memories

A Silent Sentinel in New York Harbor

For more than two centuries, the military communities on Governors Island were woven into the intricate social, political and economic tapestry that is New York City. From 1776-1996, Governors Island stood as a silent sentinel in New York Harbor, and provided protection of the ideals represented by the Statue of Liberty across the Bay. We invite you to explore the Island's history as it evolved from colonial outpost to regional administrative center for the U.S. Army and Coast Guard.

National Park Rangers and Volunteers lead programs, provide special events, lectures and self-guided activities during the open season. This year, the park will open on Saturday, June 5, 2010. Until then, share your memories of your visits by jumping into our flickr pool and sharing photographs of your visits to this special place.
