Notes
  • Significance: When completed in 1931, Fireboat JOHN J. HARVEY utilized gasoline engines, marking the transition from steam power to gasoline. Although altered in 1957 to replace the original gasoline engines with diesel ones, HARVEY remains an intact example of an early twentieth century fireboat and remains operational, last used during the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center.
