The Battleship remembers Greta Zimmer Friedman, the nurse from the iconic Times Square kiss, celebrating victory in World War II. Ms. Friedman passed away on Sept. 8 at the age of 92.
Ms. Friedman’s kiss was captured in the sculpture, “Embracing Peace, ” created by Seward Johnson. One of the sculptures sits on the pier of the Battleship and can be viewed with a tour of the Big J.
