NBC 10 Philadelphia: Deal reached to move SS United States from Philly, turn it into artificial reef
The fate of the SS United States is a done deal.
After more than two years of legal battles between the SS United States Conservancy and Penn Warehousing, the ship will be purchased by Okaloosa County, Florida, for $10 million.
The ship will leave Philadelphia soon and head to Norfolk, Virginia, where it will undergo preparations to become an artificial reef.
