The Big Goliath crane at the former Fore River Shipyard has finally been sold and will be disappearing from Quincy's skyline shortly. The crane has been visible from not only parts of Quincy, but many areas throughout the South Shore.
The shipyard has been closed for many years and the current owner has been trying to find a buyer for the crane. The crane was purchased and will be dismantled in the near future and shipped to a shipyard in Romania.
There are plans by the current owner to develop the shipyard into residential and retail space similar to Marina Bay in Quincy. The former shipyard site is located right on the Fore River.
The project has not begun yet and is still a few years away from being revived.
