Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, we’re wishing you all (and the Big U) a wonderful holiday season!

There are multiple examples of fantastic restorations that were written off by many as impossible or delusional, but, time and time again, those passionate about preserving history prove otherwise.

Shown here are photos of the wonderfully restored SS Nomadic before and after restoration efforts. There's a ship in Mobile who's looking strikingly similar to the befores...

It's time to make her look like the afters.

As of December 5, the New York Coalition to Save the SS United States has been officially accepted as a consulting party by the US Army Corps of Engineers to join the ongoing Section 106 review for the proposed SS United States reefing project. This ultimately gives the Coalition an official voice in the Section 106 consultation process. We join the SS United States Preservation Foundation Inc in this status and we are united in the fight to save America's Flagship by working with the US Army Corps of Engineers to consider alternatives and modifications to the project that would be less harmful to the historic ship than reefing.

If you’d like to view a stream of the Council Meeting tomorrow - here’s where it will be streamed!

Live Stream Hearings Together, we make the laws governing New York City

We'll be there.
We'll be submitting testimony.

Some things in life are just worth fighting for...
No matter what others may tell you ;)
To those of you who continue to fight for this ship alongside us, thank you.❤️🤍💙

Thank you to Congressman Thomas Suozzi and Congresswoman Grace Meng for reaching out to US Secretary of the Interior, Doug Burgum regarding the beautiful (and historic!) SS United States.

There's a ship that currently looks similar, yet some continue to try and tell you revitalization wouldn't be possible 🤔

Do not be deterred.

Did you know the Queen’s funnels were entirely removed and replaced shortly after her arrival for permanent preservation in Longbeach?
