There is also a third outlet to the ocean around Staten Island through shallow water for small vessels and barges of small draught. In addition to the great and expensive improvement at Hell Gate, the government deepened and dredged the channels through the lower bay and opening to the ocean. Between Sandy Hook and Coney Island was a bar with shallows which it was difficult at low tide for large vessels to pass. By means of dredging boats the government scooped out a passage here 1000 feet wide... and 30 feet deep at low tide. Since then the dredges have been at work producing another channel 2000 feet wide and 40 feet deep. These channels are protected by light- houses and buoys, which guide ships into the harbor. NEW YORK CITY 207 For the protection of the harbor and the great cities with their vast wealth in case of war, fortresses hav6 been built at the commanding entrances: as Fort Wads worth, on the sloping sides of the hill which rises just yvest of the Narrows. This, the heaviest defence, consists of ^ line of water batteries and heavy granite casemd-tQS oil the hill- side.
