Any locals know what the light colored "half-pyramid looking building" on the left of the Port of NY webcam is? Thanks! :)

Not a local but it's a residential building, VIA 57 West:

I almost walked over for a first hand look when the Crystal Symphony was in New York August 30 but it was so hot I didn't.

was in Manhattan for a meeting today and had the pleasure of driving down the west side to see the Zuiderdam docked next to Oceania Insignia!

Wish I was parking and boarding her!

Looks like a beautiful day in NY.

Wow! You guys are really upping the knowledge game with respect to the sail away threads. I'm going to have to hit the local museums before the Port Everglades season starts. I used to rest my laurels on knowing the name of the ship channel and the turning basin. I guess that 2018 calls for the "A" game. Thank goodness I have two weeks to prep!

We've got a team digging core samples as I write this. We'll have definitive answers by the start of the season. (Barring that, we will totally make things up.)

It's supposed to be done by the end of the month. (I should probably add that I'm not making this up.)

She may have come in late but she is leaving early.

[Happily@Sea]

Glad to see she is on time and even - early.

[Scrapnana]

And we have a WP!

Tooting at each other.

I wish there was enough light so we could see the boats.

Looks like an empty space - one from the rear.

[rafinmd]

Nicely lit up from the rear.

Thanks Carole. It looks from AIS like she's near Chelsea Piers. Still can't see her on the Harbor cam.

I see something moving on the harbor cam that might be Zuiderdam.

[rafinmd]

I think I see her now. She's still visible as a tiny speck on the port cam and edging closer to the Jersey shore.and passing the Statue of Liberty.
