Need Help Help identifying Battleship

Can anyone make a ID on the battleship behind the bow of the Pennsylvania? I think it looks like the New York, but I'm not sure. It was taken between 1927 and 1929, possibly in the Caribbean.

The positioning of the secondary 5" armament, broadside and as far forward as the forward-most main turret would seem to agree with it being New York class. I haven't seen that in any of the other BB classes after a cursory review of WWI-era BBs. Of course I could have missed something.
