USS Holland (SS-1) was the United States Navy''s first commissioned submarine, named for her Irish-American inventor, John Philip Holland, although not the first submarine of the US Navy, which was the 1862 Alligator. The boat was originally laid down as Holland VI, and launched on 17 May 1897. The work was done at (Ret.) Navy Lieutenant Lewis Nixon''s Crescent Shipyard of Elizabeth, New Jersey for John Holland''s company, then known as the Holland Torpedo Boat Company. The craft was built under the supervision of John Holland who designed the vessel and its details. The keel to this craft was laid at this time with both men present at the scene located at Nixon''s Crescent Shipyard. The two men worked together using many of John Holland''s proven concepts and patents to make the submarine a reality, both men complementing each others contributions to the development of the modern submarine.
