Ship Ahoy!

July 15, 2010 in Odds and Ends by Cyrus

We love it when the archeology of New York becomes front-page news. Click here for the account in this morning’s New York Times of the discovery of what seems to be a 17th-century ship during the excavations for the new World Trade Center’s  underground vehicle security center. The excavations are taking place at a site that was not dug up before, which according to the article, “is close to where Lindsey’s Wharf and Lake’s Wharf once projected into the Hudson.”

Previously (on the subject of things dug up from the ground in New York). This one too.
