EXCITING PLAN FOR THE SS UNITED STATES PROVES VIABILITY; NOW AMERICA’S FLAGSHIP NEEDS NEW HOME



HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP

Last week, we unveiled exciting plans for the SS United States’ revitalization. This bold and detailed vision developed over nearly five years by RXR and MCR Hotels demonstrates exactly how America’s Flagship can become an iconic, commercially viable destination that creates thousands of jobs, millions in economic activity, and acres of open, green space.

The project's highlights include a grand hotel, a dramatic glass ballroom utilizing the ship's original kingposts, re-imagining the lifeboats as special hotel "cabanas", the repurposing of the iconic funnels as dramatic focal points in the redeveloped ship and atriums, unique food and beverage spaces, and a world-class museum that would immerse visitors in the ship’s history.

Despite this progress, the SS United States remains in peril because the ship urgently needs a home. Without securing a new and permanent pier location, the ship – which is facing eviction from her current pier in Philadelphia  will be lost forever. Securing a home for the ship requires engagement and support now from state and local political leaders in places like New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, and other major port cities.


THAT'S WHERE YOU CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR THE BIG U.


Today, we are asking for your help in spreading the word about all of the enormous economic and cultural benefits the SS United States would bring to her future home. Saving this iconic symbol of the nation would generate thousands of jobs, create acres of new waterfront green space, and draw visitors from across the country and around the world. Click the link below to send an email you can personalize to officials.


Thank you, once again, for your continued support. Together, we have achieved remarkable progress in creating a commercially-viable plan for saving the SS United States. Now we need to rally around America’s Flagship and find her a home.
