It's a US Navy ship that has been sitting docked on the west side of NY, people come and walk through it. USS Intrepid was a big deal I guess in the Navy during the WW 2.
"During the Pacific Campaign of World War II, the USS Intrepid suffered seven bomb attacks, five kamikaze strikes and one torpedo hit; yet the ship continually returned to action after repairs, earning her the reputation among the enemy as the "The Ghost Ship.""
