The Titanic itself was supposed to dock at Pier 59 several piers to the north, Pier 54 is just where the Carpathia dropped off the survivors.

The Cunard/White Star Line terminal building was a beautiful building that stretched several piers/docks.

This pier still existed on my first trip to New York, and I think it’s a shame that it no longer exists.

Yes, the Cunard steamer R.M.S. Lusitania sailed from this pier for the last time on May 1, 1915.
