World Trade Center site are excavating a 32ft-long ship (9.8m) hull believed to have been buried in the 18th Century.
Archaeologists believe the ship was used as filler material to extend lower Manhattan into the Hudson River.
Archaeologist Molly McDonald hopes the ship, discovered on Tuesday, would be retrieved by the end of the day.
It is unclear if any large portions of the hull would remain intact, but Ms McDonald hopes to salvage some timbers. - bbc news
"We're mostly clearing it by hand because it's kind of fragile," said Ms McDonald.
