Waterfront Facilities
College President Admiral John Craine has demonstrated his commitment for making Maritime’s waterfront, already considered one the best, “the best collegiate waterfront in the country.” In support of this directive plans are progressing for a $10 million waterfront improvement project. Current facilities include:
Olivet Pier
The 600’ pier serves as home for Maritime’s Training Ship the 565’ Empire State VI and monomoy’s.
McMurray Hall
McMurray, which goes by a variety of nicknames including the “TIV” (Student Activities Center), waterfront, sailing center or simply the boathouse, is the heart of the waterfront recreational activity.
Ground Floor: three bays offering large indoor repair and storage facilities supported by nearby machine, wood, and paint shops, and a changing room
Mezzanine: A team meeting room and men’s and women’s locker rooms
Top Floor: waterfront offices, all purpose student lounge, café’ and balcony with one of the best viewing platforms in all of college sailing offering a panoramic view of the East River from the Throgs Neck Bridge to the New York City skyline beyond the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge.
Apron: Behind McMurray Hall you will find a 20-ton travel lift and two-ton jib crane enabling Maritime to efficiently haul and maintain its recreational vessels at this facility.
