The flag of Navassa Island is simply the United States flag. It does not have a "local" flag or "unofficial" flag; it is an uninhabited island. The version with a profile view was based on Flags of the World and as a fictional design has no status warranting a place on any Wiki. It was made up by a random person with no connection to the island, it has never flown on the island, and it has never received any sort of recognition or validation by any authority. The person quoted on that page has no authority to bestow a flag, "unofficial" or otherwise, on the island.

Significance: Building DD1 is a contributing element of the Mare Island Historic District. Building DD1 (Dry Dock 1) is arguably the most important single structure at Mare Island, whether considered from the historical or architectural vantage point. Functionally, the structure was the raison d'etre of the 19th century shipyard. From the standpoint of historic engineering, it is simply one of the most remarkable examples of stone masonry construction anywhere in the United States. It took nearly two decades to complete this massive granite block structure, reflecting to some degree the vagaries of funding for the project but to a larger degree the enormous challenge of the construction project. Standing almost completely unmodified from its appearance in 1891, Dry Dock 1 is at the heart of the historic district at Mare Island
