Anyone who is going on the "new" crown out of New York will also be going out of a new port. Pier 12 at the Brooklyn cruise terminal will be the home port for the new Princess Crown. They (princess) dont really tell you that anywhere (that I can see) and I am glad I came across it.
We live in Pgh PA & we are chartering a bus. I have to supply an itinerary w/ address of port.I thought I would share this info in case others might have thought this ship went out of New York City passanger ship terminal!

I found some great information on the new port at this link:
http://www.brooklyncruiseguide.com/cruise-terminal.html
It will give you information about the port and how to get there. It's going to be beautiful!!!
I will be cruising the new Crown Princess from NY in July and am looking foward toit.
Also, If you're going Eastern Carrabean, Grand Turk is also a brand new terminal being built by Carnival Cruises!!

The brand new Noordam was the first ship to call on Grand Turk the end of February.
