Default Need a Suggestion from One of the Navy Gamers

After several years, I’ve warmed to the idea of basing a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier off Manhattan and using its machine shops and expertise to support a recovery in New York. This got me thinking about security v logistical arrangements and so forth. This got me thinking about permanently rigging the power plant to support an area on the shore like in Satellite Down. This got me thinking about the likelihood of a massive population wanting to move aboard and whether one could keep a small town aboard the ship in relative security and available for labor of all types. This got me thinking about Alameda in San Francisco Bay. This got me wondering about which nuclear carrier would be best to park off Alameda and rig for power to the shore.

So, can I get any suggestions as to which CVN should be permanently docked at Alameda?
