Coast Guard Veterans, Retired and Active-Duty Personnel

You are always welcome at CGC LILAC.

If you are planning to visit, please contact us directly to arrange a private tour.  In the winters, we are typically at a work berth where access is more restricted.

If you are a LILAC veteran, we would like to collect your reminiscences. Please let us know if you are willing to be recorded and if you can share photos or other memorabilia from your time on board.

If you are traveling to New York City and need a place to stay, we will do our best to assist. The Soldiers', Sailors', Marines', Coast Guard & Airmen's Club is one affordable option.
