Fall River Heritage State Park revisited
Now in the title when I say revisited let me make it clear here I mean revisited as in another post and not that I visited there again, but I will sometime :)
I really enjoyed my morning visit there seeing the cool Braga Bridge and the Navy battleships in a place called Battleship cove

Battleship Cove is a nonprofit maritime museum and war memorial in Fall River, in Massachusetts, a short drive from where I live
It features the world's largest collection of World War II naval vessels, it is home to the highly decorated battleship USS Massachusetts. It is located at the heart of the waterfront at the confluence of the Taunton River and Mount Hope Bay and lies partially beneath the Braga Bridge and adjacent to Fall River Heritage State Park which is where i was when I took these photos
The memorial traces its origins to the wartime crew of Massachusetts, who fought to save it from being broken up and ensure its preservation as a museum ship.
The battleship forms a small cove which serves as a protected harbor for pleasure craft during the summer months.
The site also contains the historic 1920 Lincoln Park Carousel made by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, PTC #54, originally located at Lincoln Park in nearby North Dartmouth, Massachusetts, restored by local vocational high school students and installed in a new pavilion in the early 1990s. A fairground organ provides the carousel's music.
