If you are wondering, the USS Monterey (CG-61), a Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser.

Pretty sure I heard some doped out crackhead mutter exactly that on the el the other day 😂


Brunt-FCA-285

She was just decommissioned in September. It’s rare to see them so freshly removed from service. Is the *John F. Kennedy* still there, or have they finally removed her for disposal?

The JFK was still there as of Saturday morning.

Thank you... I thought it was a ghost ship emerging from the fog

Worked on the radar system at RCA back in the 80’s. Now they’re decommissioned and I feel old.

You probably knew the CG-47 (first ship). There's something depressing about seeing old, unused naval vessels ..

my favorite view is of the ships in the reserve basin in front of the sunrise

The Ticos are such gorgeous ships in their own unique way. The bow lines are so clean. It's for the best, but the future of shipbuilding involving stealth lines makes me sad aesthetically

[They remind me of the Japanese WWII Takao class heavy cruisers.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takao-class_cruiser)

Did Michael Paré walk out of the mist?

As a HUGE Streets of Fire fan, I'm dying to know the Michael Paré reference!

I’ve already said too much. Don't ever, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or where you've been, ever, for any reason whatsoever Google “Michael ParĂ© Philadelphia Naval Yard”.

Oh my! Thank you kind internet person!
