Meetup details

Battleship USS Iowa at the Port of Los Angeles

Wikimedians visit the USS Iowa Museum. Normal pass price is ~$24/person. Take photographs to later upload to Wikimedia Commons. Learn about the battleship and its history, which can lead to persons to look up reliable sources, to improve/grow content on Wikipedia. Hopefully meet with YouTube personality & naval historian Drachinifel.

Getting there

edit

The ex-USS Iowa (BB-61) is located at the Port of Los Angeles just south of its cruise ship terminal. It is near the southern terminus of Interstate 110. For those driving there, carpooling is encouraged, and paid parking is adjacent to the museum. It is also possible to use Los Angeles Metro Bus, route 205, to get there; nearest stops are Harbor/1st & Harbor Blvd. & 6th St.. Another possibility is to take J Line to Harbor Beacon Park & Ride.
