Do we know whether they will pass through the East Channel (AKA Queens side) or the West Channel (AKA Manhattan side)? According to the map on the official website, they will go through the east, but the Roosevelt Island Bridge might not accommodate all the “Class B Tall Ships.” Will the bridge be lifted for this occasion?

West Channel.
