Pretty sure. It was 4 years ago! I remember something that could have been nothing but a battleship. Always thought it was the Jersey. Could be wrong. I know there were at least 2 battleships moored up there.

What year are you thinking of, and do you mean on the NJ side of the River (Bayonne)?



IIRC Washington and North Carolina were there until the early 1960s. In the picture above, the two long ships moored abreast at the head (right side) of the line (with a third smaller ship outboard) are the two Alaska-Class Large Cruisers (which could be mistaken for Battleships). Behind them are the Washington and North Carolina, followed by some other smaller ships and then two carriers. The carrier at the far left is Enterprise, the second from left is an Essex (not sure which one).
