Just trying to confirm, you can stay on the walkway once you reach the Intrepid? No crossing the street (as Google maps is showing) to enter the terminal at Pier 88?

Nope, no crossing the street, everything is on the "Hudson" side. If Google shows crossing the street, it may be because it's showing car mode rather than what a pedestrian would have to do.

Just now I did a query using Google maps, from Pier 79 to Pier 88, walking. For some inexplicable reason Google shows a route uptown along the river from Pier 78 (38th Street) to Pier 86 (46th Street, at Intrepid), using the pedestrian bridge to cross to the east side of Twelfth Avenue, then crossing back at Pier 90 (50th Street) to the west side of Twelfth Avenue, and walking downtown along the river Pier 88 (48th Street). Why? Unknown. Maybe the engineers in Mountain View do not know midtown Manhattan all that well. Google maps also changed my starting point, from Pier 79 (39th Street) to Pier 78 (78th Street), again for some inexplicable reason. Google maps is very helpful but not infallible. Use it as a guide, not as a bible.

Try this map for Hudson River Park, click on "Hells Kitchen Pier 97" and scroll south you will see the Intrepid Pier 86, while not google maps it is a good representation. The yellow less than signs < denote entrances to piers, cross streets, and nearest subways.
