Thirsty Long Island City-ites will soon be getting a new watering hole – on a boat. The floating bar will reside upon an old ferry in the area’s Anable Basin, and will boast a lively new beer garden for the nabe. The project’s initiator, Matt Quigley, began the new waterfront venue as a way to enliven and further revitalize Hunters Point.
