Florida Battleship Keel Laid at Brooklyn Navy Yard
The United States plans to lay the keel of the 20,000-ton Florida later this month at the Brooklyn navy yard. The vessel will be the largest in the fleet and built by government workers after debates on private versus public construction. The project requires lengthening ways, razing and rebuilding nearby structures, and a new cantilever crane to speed material handling. A resurvey will fix the state boundary posts along the Oregon line, with officials urging permanent landmark placement to prevent future disputes.
