Comment du Jour

Revisiting the Grande Dame--Part III




The SS United States seen from IKEA's Cafe. The Swedish flag flies alongside the
Stars and Stripes. In fact the IKEA Cafe is the best place to view the ship.





America's Oceanliner the "Lady in Waiting" berthed at South Philly's Pier 82




The majestic red stacks of the SS United States as seen coming down Columbus Avenue!





And the mournful sight of the Oceanliner's proud name...need we say more???

People across America have rallied to save the SS United States. Coordinated efforts are key and I feel the www.ssunitedstatesconservancy.org combines the right tone, pitch, and efforts for this task.

Look at the last picture again. Now check their site.
