Discovered beneath the World Trade Center site in 2010, this 18th-century wooden gunboat lay hidden for over two centuries, preserved beneath layers of Manhattan’s historic landfill.

Dr. Lucas will guide visitors through the ship’s remarkable excavation, the historical clues uncovered during research, and the ongoing conservation efforts that are breathing new life into this rare maritime relic. Don’t miss this chance to witness archaeology in action and learn how a forgotten gunboat helps illuminate the Revolutionary era and its enduring legacy.
