==History== Gas Engine & Power Company & Charles L. Seabury Company was a ship building firm located in Morris Heights, New York. It was formed from the merger of the Charles L. Seabury Company founded in 1885 in Nyack, New York and the Gas Engine & Power Company founded about the same time in Morris Heights, New York. Seabury was famous for its steam yachts and Gas Engine & Power Company primary focus was in naptha-powered launches. Although initially, the company went by the name of Gas Engine & Power Company & Charles L. Seabury Company, after the First World War, it became known as Consolidated Shipbuilding. The shipyard was located on Mathewson Road in the Morris Heights neighborhood of the Bronx, near what is today the location of Roberto Clemente State Park. Consolidated Shipbuilding moved to Robert Jacobs shipyard on City Island after the Second World War and it continued to build ships until 1958. Continuing its production of luxury yachts, on July 16, 1908 Charles L. Seabury & Co's shipyard launched the "largest yacht in the world driven by motor power ... in the presence of its owner Charles Henry Fletcher". She was 111 feet over all, with a 21-foot beam, and 260 horse power and an engineering feat for luxury yachts of the time.
