The Iowa will never be in Stockton as the city has withdrawn it’s bid. Vallejo took it up next but is now considering bankruptcy as I believe the Mare Island site would need expensive dredging.

All of these ships were decommissioned on the theory that they would be of no use in the ballistic/guided missle age. It might be nice to have their armament augmented by missles and the vessels returned to active duty.

Apropos of nothing, Camden New Jersey, where the USS New Jersey is berthed, has the highest violent crime rate of any American city.
