Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | City Pier A is a municipal pier built from 1884 to 1886 to serve the New York City Department of Docks and Harbor Police. The pier was expanded in 1900 and again in 1919 with a clock installed in the pier's tower as a memorial to 116,000 US servicemen who died during World War I. The New York City Fire Department used the pier from 1960 to 1992 as a fireboat station. In 1991, the American Merchant Mariners' Memorial was installed on a rebuilt stone breakwater just south of Pier A; designed by the sculptor Marisol Escobar. The memorial depicts four merchant seamen with their sinking vessel after it had been attacked by a U-boat during World War II. From 1992 onward, the pier was vacant and fell into disrepair. A restoration of the pier commenced in 2009 and opened to the public in November 2014. |
