Cunard White Star Pier/Pier 54 (Pass By)

Cunard White Star Pier (Pier 54) holds a remarkable place in New York City’s maritime history. In the early 1900s, it served as a major transatlantic passenger terminal, welcoming legendary ships such as the RMS Lusitania and the RMS Carpathia. Pier 54 became world-famous in 1912 when the Carpathia arrived here carrying the survivors of the RMS Titanic disaster. Later, it was home to the Cunard Line and White Star Line, symbols of the golden age of ocean travel between Europe and America. Though only remnants of the original structure remain, Pier 54 stands as a poignant reminder of New York’s role as a gateway to the world — and of the triumphs and tragedies of the great age of steamships.
