U.S.S. New York In Manhattan

The U.S.S. New York sailed up the Hudson to a midtown dock this morning. The technologically advanced “amphibious transport dock” will be officially commissioned in Manhattan on Saturday. The New York is named in honor of those who lost their lives in the World Trade Center attacks and has 7.5 tons of steel reclaimed from the Twin Towers in its bow.

Of note for those in the NYC area: The public is invited to tour the New York on select days November 4 through November 11.
