The Twin Towers are setting sail today.

This is pretty cool. This ship was made with 7½ tons of World Trade Center steel  from the Twin Towers, that was melted down and forged into the "stem bar," the part of the bow that cuts through the sea,  and is leaving NOLA today for it's maiden voyage en route to her New York commissioning on November 7th ....

Alex Jones better get  some "troofers"  over there as it looks like they're getting rid of the evidence forever...lol


Made with steel forged from the wreckage of the World Trade Center, the USS New York this morning begins its maiden voyage from New Orleans to the city for its Nov. 7 commissioning ceremony.

There is no shortage of Big Apple homages on board: The main passageway has been dubbed Broadway, the ship's insignia references the NYPD and FDNY, and the diner-inspired galley, the Skyline Café, features a pre-9/11 blue neon outline of the city. There's even a 34th Street and a 42nd Street on board.

But it is the New York's bow, made from Ground Zero steel, that makes this 'amphibious landing platform dock' -- which can deliver a 700-member Marine battalion anywhere in the world -- a true New Yorker, Cmdr. Curtis Jones told The Post."   more here
