Yeah if you ask the police officer(s) there. They'll either say "yes" or "no."

The buildings are far to dangerous to go inside from what I heard. The bulidings are to old & you could break one of the floors. And land break one of your bones. Laters.
i think this is sad because in 20 years or sooner there gonna be like hey where are all those ships and realize there to old and distroyed to restore i mean it would be awesome to go see them in a museum.
SeanMurray, I've been paddling through these wrecks for years.

Warning! The waters of the Kill Van Kull (the body of water these wrecks lie in) are extremely dangerous. The currents are strong and unpredictable. large boats traverse through the channel leaving huge swells in their wake. I've almost been swamped a few times.
Please dont attempt this unless youre a strong, experienced paddler.
My son "hang's out" in Byberry and while I am sure there is "partying" going on I believe he and his friends are there simply to explore....who wouldn't? I know in my teen days many of the mansions were already abandoned and we too explored everything we could. I do have to say all of you are pretty brave;-) I think it's time my son get a digital camera for as much as he's in there;-) He could tell/show you a thing or two also;-) Have fun guys!!!!! GodDog, Radical Ed....you guys rock!!
This is sonar, and yes, WWII era, this is making me wonder, could there be USN and USCG ships in this graveyard? Again, my idea of restoring one for a museum at the sight is an idea for honoring those that served aboard these now-dying ships.
Where is Franklin Plant? The outside reminds me a lot of an abandoned or at least disused plant, on a river, by the Metro North/Amtrak tracks. Especially the windows. I remember every time I would take the train into NYC I'd see the plant and be totally mystified by it and wonder what it's like inside.
