John Woelfling, of Dattner Architects, discusses the USS Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. He explains how the ship was removed from the ocean, what they envisioned and what was accomplished when opening the ship to the public. The USS Intrepid (CV11) aircraft carrier was commissioned in 1943 for service in World War II, served during the Vietnam conflict, and went on to serve as a primary recovery vessel for NASA. In 1976, this ship was decommissioned and was set to be scrapped until real estate developer Zachary Fisher and the Intrepid Museum Foundation saved the boat and founded the museum. One of New York City's most visited attractions, the USS Intrepid Museum aims to "honor our heroes, educate the public, and inspire our young people."
