On 16. September the famous cruiseship "Queen Elizabeth II" will come to NYC - does anyone know in which part of the harbour it will be anchored?

Cunard and Princess have been using the Red Hook cruise terminal, but there is still a chance they may dock at the west side piers. It's doing the Farewell to America Crossing.

here it says the 19th but on the Cunard schedule is the 16th.
I believe QE2 will going to the Manhattan terminal despite the Cunard generally using the Red Hook terminal these days.
Last I checked QE2 will be both arriving & departing in darkness, or close to it - I'll have to check that again.
Best to see her at the pier I suppose.

The pier at Manhattan is at the beginning of 55th Street West, am I right?
At the Cunard website I read that it will be at NYC at 16. September from 8:00 to 17:00, so I think there will be a chance to see it leaving NY before sunset.
The north end of the terminal is at 55th, it stretches down to around 43rd.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
