Wow, the 2 hour rule's really extended!
That question was a bit too easy, but what I wanted to do i wasn't sure that I had the right answer.
and RMS Gigantic, I don't know but I think you're correct.

I doubt the WTC was built for a ship, famous or not..
My guess would be Pier 54.. :)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pier_54
Pier 54 was not built FOR a famous ship. It was the last place Lusitania stopped before its final voyage. Some erroneously associate it with Titanic, though Titanic lacked even the furthest relationship with the pier. Titanic was to dock at Pier 59. Pier 54 has "White Star" on it because it's "Cunard White Star" after the merger of the two companies somewhere around the Great Depression.

Yeah that's right. It's caused by an occasional glitch when you come out of the atlantic and then free roam the solent. Makes for some interesting mooring! :thumbs:

nobody's posted a new question, so I suppose I can go:
What company owned this building and what famous thing was built here?
(I'm Pretty sure my answer is right)
