CNJ ferry slips at Liberty Street

Does anyone have better pictures of the street-side of Piers 10 and 11? As far as I know the building was connected to the Liberty Ferry Building and owned by the same company.

I’m actually really digging that Columbus Circle idea. Would look great next to 220 CPS.
