The first USS Rochester (CA-2), an armored cruiser laid down in 1890, served during and after World War One. A 48″ replica is being constructed for the Society by master ship modeler Timothy Igoe. This event is the kick off of a capital campaign to fund the construction. See the history of the ship, meet Tim and artist Doug Stewart who is doing a woodcut print as premium for the campaign.
