Ship Found at WTC Site
Workers at the World Trade Center site are excavating a 32-foot-long ship hull that apparently was utilized inside the 18th century as element of the fill that extended lower Manhattan into the Hudson River.
“It’s hoped the artifact can be retrieved by the end of the day on Thursday“, mentioned archaeologist Molly McDonald. A boat specialist was heading to the site to take a look at it.
McDonald mentioned she wanted to a minimum of salvage some timbers; it was unclear if any large portions could be lifted intact.
“We’re mostly clearing it by hand because it’s kind of fragile,” she stated, but construction gear might be employed later inside the procedure.
