Three Queens arrival in New York - via webcam

qe2verrazano.jpg


Cunard's "three queens" -- the Queen Elizabeth 2, the Queen Mary 2 and the new Queen Victoria -- are arriving in New York City right now.

Watch via webcam - the top image is from the QE2 bridgecam as she aproaches the Verrazano Bridge.

Bridgecams are also onboard the Queen Victoria and QM2.

Unfortunately, sunrise isn't until 7:19 a.m.

Also try these:

Pier 86 webcam
Statue of Liberty webcam
Wired NY Hudson River cam
Hudson River Park webcam
NYC traffic cam at Canal and West Street

Update: Here are a few more webcam screenshots of the three queens arriving in New York:

The QE2 passing Pier 86, (which is under renovation awaiting the return of the Intrepid.)

A series of three as the QM2 slowly backs into the Buttermilk Channel (which divides Brooklyn from Governors Island.) It took a full five minutes for the ship to pass Lady Liberty:

The Queen Victoria was the last to dock, arriving at the Manhattan Cruise Ship Terminal at 8 a.m. The Pier 86/Intrepid webcam (which switches among three angles,) shows her pulling into Pier 88, and eventually all but obscuring the QE2 at Pier 92.
