The New York is under construction but this is the first vessel of the class, the U.S.S. San Antonio.

The History Channel had a program about the USS New York a few weeks ago. They had some wonderful interviews with the steel workers who worked the recovered steel into the ship's bow and other components. They were all extremely proud and honored to be able to work on the New York.

When Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast last year, the shipyard where the New York was under construction took some damage, but the ship herself escaped with only minor damage.
