Quincy's proud shipbuilding history comes to life aboard this Cold War-era heavy cruiser. Berthed at her home port, the former Fore River Shipyard, the USS Salem serves as home to the "Kilroy Was Here" catchphrase and the United States Naval Shipbuilding Museum. Onboard exhibits feature memorabilia of over 100 U.S. Naval Cruisers including the City's namesake U.S.S. Quincy and U.S.S. Newport News, a Military Weapons Display and Archives, and Model Ships collection.
