The “CMA CGM Marco Polo”, the largest ship to ever visit the East Coast of the US, sailed into New York harbor this morning, Thursday, May 20, 202..  It passed the Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan, before turning around and sailing through the Kill Van Kill, and then  under the Bayonne Bridge in route to Port Newark.  School children who attend the Harbor School on Richmond Terrace had an opportunity to cross the street from their building and pose with the ship as it sailed behind them.
