The vessel was towed to Glen Cove , New York , in 1998 as part of a plan to revitalize the city ′ s waterfront . Plans to restore the ship were hampered by the discovery that she was not involved in rescuing Jewish refugees in World War II , as well as the economic impact of the September 11 attacks in 2001 . The ship was chronically leaky and sank at the dock in 2002 . Efforts to raise her in 2003 damaged her beyond repair . The deck , gunnels , deckhouse , bowsprit , masts , and rigging were preserved and set in concrete on the nearby esplanade
