It was armed with 25 guns or cannons . During the slave trade it intercepted slave ships and freed their captives. During the Civil war it served the union by enforcing the blockade and discouraging raiders. Today the USS constellation is a floating museum in the Baltimore inner harbor.

The Baltimore Inner Harbor Cruise Complete Tour Part 1
This is an in depth complete tour of the Baltimore inner harbor. There is some wind which starts towards the middle and ends towards the end of the cruise. So you will only hear it a lot towards the middle of the cruise. Sorry about that.
Part 2:
The Inner Harbor is a historic seaport, tourist attraction, and landmark of the city of Baltimore, Maryland, USA. It was described by the Urban Land Institute in 2009 as “the model for post-industrial waterfront redevelopment around the world.”The Inner Harbor is located at the mouth of Jones Falls, creating the wide and short northwest branch of the Patapsco River. The district includes any water west of a line drawn between the foot of President Street and the American Visionary Art Museum.
The name Inner Harbor is used not just for the water but for the surrounding area of the city, with approximate street boundaries of President Street to the east, Lombard Street to the north, Greene Street to the west, and Key Highway on the south. The harbor is within walking distance of Camden Yards and M&T Bank Stadium. A water taxi connects passengers to Fells Point, Canton, and Fort McHenry.
While Baltimore has been a major U.S. seaport since the 18th century, the historically shallow water of the Inner Harbor (prior to manipulation through dredging) was not conducive to large ships or heavy industry. These were concentrated in Locust Point, Fell's Point, and Canton.
In the mid-20th century, Baltimore suffered from the economic decline of restructuring common to many industrial cities in the United States. Old harbors were abandoned with the arrival of container ships after World War II. Later, the old harbors were adapted as focal points to reconnect cities with their waterfronts, and develop public spaces, tourism, business, and housing.
The Inner Harbor neighborhood is centered on a tourism-friendly plaza that surrounds part of the harbor.
During the 1940s, John H. Threadgill, the head of the Steamship Trade Association, initiated a study for a cross-harbor bridge. A bridge across the Inner Harbor of Baltimore was one idea that was discussed frequently. In his capacity as head of the association, Threadgill ultimately recommended that the idea for a cross-harbor bridge be abandoned, due to the fact that Baltimore relied heavily on a shipping trade and fears that the bridge would negatively impede the flow of shipping traffic at the Port of Baltimore.Threadgill was named head of Baltimore's Port Commission during the 1950s.
In the 1950s, economic changes ended both the freight and passenger use of the Inner Harbor, such as the Old Bay Line's steamers. Rotting warehouses and piers were eventually torn down and replaced by open, grass-covered parkland that was used for recreational purposes and occasional large events.
The waterfront was gradually transformed with award-winning parks and plazas surrounded by office buildings, hotels and leisure attractions, which reversed the city's decline and became a model for urban renaissance in cities around the world. The renewal of Baltimore's Inner Harbor area began with the adoption of the 33-acre (13 ha) Charles Center project by the City Council and Mayor Thomas D’Alesandro in March 1958. Between 1958 and 1965, Baltimore renewed the center of its business district by rebuilding Charles Center with office buildings, hotels, and retail shops.
At the beginning of mayor Theodore R. McKeldin's second term in 1963, the redevelopment program was expanded to include 240 acres (97 ha) surrounding the Inner Harbor. Corporate headquarters and hotels were built around the shoreline of the Inner Harbor. A public park and promenade were added for leisure activity and community gatherings.
On July 4, 1976, following the rendezvous of Tall Ships in New York for the U.S. Bicentennial, eight ships from other nations visited Baltimore, where they attracted a huge number of tourists. This interest helped spur the development of other tourist attractions – including the National Aquarium, Maryland Science Center, and the Harborplace festival marketplace (operated by The Rouse Company), which opened on July 4, 1980. The nearby Baltimore Convention Center and Hyatt Regency Baltimore Hotel added to the services and resulted in population density and visitors.
With the success of the Inner Harbor in the 1970s and 1980s, Baltimore became a worldwide tourist destination and model of urban planning and development. It influenced more than 100 other cities and won more than 40 national or international awards, including a citation by the American Institute of Architects in 1984 as “one of the supreme achievements of large-scale urban design and development in U.S. history.”

Baltimore, Maryland: 2019's Best Views Drone Video
Fort McHenry is the pentagonal bastion fort in the Baltimore, Maryland, Locust Point district. It is a national treasure, because it successfully defended Baltimore Harbor from an attack by the British navy from the Chesapeake Bay on September 13, 1814. The next morning, the fort flew a 30x42 feet American garrison flag, signaling victory and inspiring Francis Scott Key to write the poem 'Defense of Fort M'Henry' which was set to the tune 'To Anacreon of Heaven'. The song went on to be called 'The Star Spangled Banner' and now serves as the National Anthem of the United States. Today, thousands of tourists visit this historic site to see the real original flag which was hoisted in 1814 to signal America’s victory.
Baltimore's Inner Harbor is a historic neighborhood and seaport hailed as the model for post-industrial waterfront redevelopment around the world, in 2009 by Urban Land Institute. The economic devastation from World War Two left this area littered with abandoned factories and warehouses through the 1950s. A decade of initiatives from Mayors Thomas D'Alesandro and Theodore McKeldon revitalized the district by replacing the dilapidation with waterfront parks and surrounding hotels and business headquarters. Today, it is a bastion of culture with music and art, recreation and sailing.
The 71,000 seat M&T Bank Stadium is home to the NFL's Baltimore Ravens. It was built in 1999 with a price-tag of 220 million and features statues honoring legends Johnny Unitas and Ray Lewis. The 46,000 seat Orioles Park at Camden Yards is home to the MLB's Baltimore Orioles. It was built in 1992 for $110 million and, instead of destroying the B&O Warehouse it replaced, this building was incorporated into the design. Here, Cal Ripken Jr played his 2,131st consecutive game and Eddie Murray hit his 500th home run.
This one-acre museum housing more than 67,000 square feet of exhibition space features more than 4,000 permanent pieces of ‘outsider art’. It is an American icon. The museum’s founder, Rebecca Hoffberger, converted this shuttered copper paint factory and whiskey warehouse into a cultural mecca of art brut. It is now designated as America’s National Museum for Self-taught Art by the U.S. Congress. AVAM hosts annual mega-exhibitions which bring together artists from all across the United States and abroad to showcase absolutely unique expression pieces centered around a grand-theme.
In 1729, Baltimore was named after the Irish estate of Cecil Calvert, the first proprietor of Maryland and grew around the Port of Baltimore. Today, more than 2.8 million people call it home, making it the US's 21st most-populated city. Bromo-Seltzer Arts Tower is an iconic landmark in the city’s business district. Just a few blocks away, you can visit Boston Basilica, the first Catholic Cathedral built in the United States. Next, walk a few blocks to see the incredible George Washington tower.

In recent years, the area along the waterfront to the east of the Inner Harbor (in the direction of Fells Point and Little Italy) has been developed with condominiums, retail space, restaurants, and hotels – an ongoing project known as Harbor East.
While little development land remains around the Inner Harbor, the available land has been subject to many plans, which have not been realized. Recently completed projects include mixed-use developments incorporating office space, street-level retail, and condominiums, as well as hotel projects such as the Ritz Carlton Residences, a condominium project on Key Highway at the southeast corner of the Inner Harbor.
In September 2003, the Inner Harbor area was flooded by Hurricane Isabel. The Baltimore World Trade Center remained closed for a month, but all the other buildings were saved from flooding by the Inner Harbor development controls, which were created by the master developer team of Charles Center-Inner Harbor Management, Inc.

Our first full day in Baltimore, spent walking around the inner harbor and visiting all the usuals around it, like the It's Sugar store, the Barnes & Noble Power Plant , the street performer area, the Cheesecake Factory, the USS Constellation, and a very enjoyable dinner at Kona Grill near the Convention Center.
Even found out they're building up a brand new skyscraper in the inner harbor as well at 414 Light Street! Got to see the crane moving about and lifting and lowering things.
Registration for BronyCon 2017 was in the afternoon, though nothing officially started until the next day.

Sailing the Eagle Barque: America's Tall Ship is Training the USCG Cadets
The USCG Cutter Eagle Barque is America's tall ship sailboat. You will see and hear the story of how this amazing tall ship and square rigger, the USCGC Eagle is manned by U.S. Coast Guard Cadets sailing the seven seas. Hear the story of how it became the only active duty tall ship sailing vessel in the U.S. military.
From the USCG press kit:
ABOUT CGC BARQUE EAGLE USCGC
...This Eagle was built in 1936 by the Blohm and Voss Shipyard in Hamburg, Germany, and originally commissioned as Horst Wessel in 1936. Originally operated by Germany to train cadets for the German Navy, the ship was a reparation for the United States after World War II. In 1946, a U.S. Coast Guard crew - aided by the German crew still on board - sailed the tallship from Bremerhaven to its new homeport in New London, Connecticut. Eagle returned to Bremerhaven for the first time since World War II in the summer of 2005, to an enthusiastic welcome.
Built during the twilight era of sail, the design and construction of Eagle embody centuries of development in the shipbuilder’s art. Te hull is steel, four-tenths of an inch thick. There are two full-length steel decks with a platform deck below. The raised forecastle and quarterdeck are made of three-inch thick teak over steel, as are the weather decks. Eagle eagerly takes to the elements for which she was designed. Effortlessly and gracefully, she drives under full sail in the open ocean at speeds up to 17.5 knots. Currently Eagle’s homeport is the Coast Guard Yard in Baltimore, Maryland, as part of a Service Life Extension Project that will keep the ship away from its standard homeport of New London, Connecticut, for several years. At the end of this restoration period Eagle will return to New London, where she will rest along the pier on the Tames River near the Coast Guard Academy when not on a training sail.
Te Coast Guard Academy was originally founded in 1876 when nine students boarded the Revenue
Cutter Dobbin. Approximately
1,000 men and women attend the Academy each year, all of whom will sail at one time or another on America’s only active duty square-rigger...
To maneuver Eagle under sail, the crew must handle more than 22,000 square feet of sail and five miles of rigging. Over 200 lines control the sails and yards; every crewmember, cadet and officer candidate must become intimately familiar with the name, operation, and function of each line.
A permanent crew of eight offcers and 50 enlisted personnel maintain the ship year round. They provide a strong base of knowledge and seamanship for the training of up to 150 cadets or officer candidates at a time. On the decks and in the rigging of Eagle, young men and women get a taste of salty air and life at sea. They are tested and challenged, often to the limits of endurance. Working aloft, they meet fear and learn to overcome it.

The cutter Eagle serves as a training vessel for Coast Guard Academy cadets and candidates from the Officer Candidate School. It is the only active-duty sailing vessel in America's military, and one of only two commissioned sailing vessels, along with the USS Constitution.
