    Welcome To New York October 11 - 14 2018 Page | 1 Downtown New York has one of the great harbors of the world. It’s story started in Downtown. In 1609 Henry Hudson sailed the “Half Moon”, a Dutch ship into the harbor. The Dutch West India Company established a settlement in lower Manhattan, and named it New Amsterdam. In 1664 the English took over and renamed the colony New York. Some of the most notable historical sites are in reach of the hotel. Bowling Green, a triangular park established by the Dutch was the site of the purchase of Manhattan Island. It is the location of the Custom House which currently holds the National Museum of the American Indian. Battery Park is a 25 acre park at the tip of Manhattan, and is the site of many memorials. It was named for the artillery battery used in the American Revolutionary war. South Street Seaport and Museum, on Front street, was established by the Dutch West India Company. The area features some of the oldest architecture in the city. Pearl Street was created from Oyster Shells which were in abundance in the area of the seaport. The Brooklyn Bridge is the world’s first steel wire suspension bridge. Started in 1869 and completed fourteen yeare later in 1883, it connects the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Wall Street marks the original boundary of the Dutch settlement. Fraunces Tavern Museum and Restaurant is located at 54 Pearl Street. In 1792 it was Headquarters for George Washington, and was the venue for peace negotiations with the British.

    NOVEMBER, 2015 VOLUME XXXII, # 10 Friday, November 20, 2015 - 6:00 PM Community Church Assembly Room, 40 East 35th Street, Manhattan The Route of the Rocket by Tom Rinaldi Ancient “Rocket boats” along the Ganges, as seen above, will be the subject of Tom Rinaldi’s November program. (Tom Rinaldi) On Friday, November 20th, WSS-PONY member Tom Rinaldi will present photographs and impressions from the "Route of the Rocket." The Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta of Bangladesh is home to what may be the last traditional side wheel riverboats in regular commercial service anywhere on Earth. Here where waterborne transport is still a necessary fact of life, a fleet of four ancient Scottish-built paddle wheelers continues to function as a vital part of the region's transportation infrastructure. Known as the "Rocket boats," some of these vessels have been in service for nearly 90 years. Though converted from steam to diesel propulsion in the 1990s, these relics of the British Raj have changed little over the years, leaving them to provide an incredible window into a time when riverboats like these were common all over the world.
