Today will be the last time the ocean liner the Queen Elizabeth 2 leaves New York (she is destined to be part of a "permanently moored hotel and entertainment complex" in Dubai). She arrived this morning with the Queen Mary 2, under the Verrazano, and they sailed by the Statue of Liberty. You can see the QE 2 and Queen Mary 2 depart their berths at 5 p.m. from a number of locations, like Battery Park, Robert Wagner, Jr Park, and Hudson River Park--here are details from Cunard. The ships will "rendezvous" near the Statue of Liberty--and there will be fireworks! more ›
