World War II Navy LST

Free parking across the street. The tour is very good and well worth the money [$15]. Ask to see the radio room; it's normally not open to the public, but with a little enthusiasm they may show it to you.

LST Navy Ship Museum

The ship moved downtown in 2020 and is now across the street from the Bally's casino. It is fully operational and goes on a cruise every fall for about a month, opening for tours at towns along the river system.
