“America’s Flagship” is being evicted. 

That is the situation the SS United States faces in a yearslong dispute with its landlord, a warehousing company in Philadelphia. The historic ship is the largest ocean liner ever constructed in the United States and the record holder for the fastest average speed during a transatlantic voyage. It is docked along the Delaware River by an old warehouse in South Philadelphia. The ship has until Sept. 12 to develop a viable alternative solution to remain there or find a new home.
