The Charlestown Patriot-Bridge reports the BPDA has discovered that Pier 5 is in such bad shape it can't be used for anything, except as a fenced-off eyesore.
Some good news for nautical nerds, also in the Patriot Bridge article:
The Tugboat ‘Luna’ will be the newest nautical entry into the Navy Yard’s tourist attractions starting next spring. Luna is currently in Chelsea and has been restored painstakingly with an investment of more than $1 million. Luna is one of just three diesel electric tugboats left in the country. Its usage dates from the 1920s and 1930s and is an historic landmark.
