Tudor Wharf Draft Environmental Impact Report EOEA # 6744 



The proponents of Tudor Wharf have also 

 designated the pier end as dockage for a 

 dinner/excursion boat. A company offering 

 one to three hour daytime cruises, lunch 

 and dinner cruises and evening cruises of 

 Boston Harbor will be sought as a tenant. 



4.3.1 Water Taxi Landing 



The water taxi landing will be located on 

 the northern edge of the pier building 

 and close to the bulkhead. This location 

 will be more accessible and visible from 

 the landside, and will be closer to 

 public restrooms and the pier building 

 lobby, which will serve as a sheltered 

 waiting area. This location is also the 

 most protected from wind and waves which 

 will make boarding much easier. (See 

 Exhibit 15) 



In Alternative #1, the use of this 

 location also precludes the use of the 

 northern edge of the pier structure for 

 the docking of any other vessels as the 

 widening of the pier for pedestrian 

 access in effect gives up use of the pier 

 edge for berthing of boats. The Tudor 

 Wharf watersheet will be needed by the 

 taxi vessels to get in and out of the 

 docking facility.
