From the Jan. 24th Brooklyn Paper.
This weekend, Jan 28-30th, folks in New York City will be marking the 150th anniversary of the ship that changed Naval technology for the next 80 years, the USS Monitor.This Saturday, a march consisting of descendants of the ship's builders will lead a parade dressed in Civil War uniforms.
No cannons will be fired at the site in Greenpoint where the ship was launched because of nearby fuel tanks.
