Come aboard! In the heart of Canal Park, set against the majestic Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge, is a Great Lakes vessel you can’t miss — and won’t want to. Despite carrying iron ore and coal through treacherous storms, the William A. Irvin remains in pristine condition today. Don’t miss your chance to tour the proud flagship of U.S. Steel’s Great Lakes Fleet. Whether you’re interested in a 2,000 horsepower steam turbine engine or delicate antique fixtures, you’ll find them both in shipshape.
