SS United States History
The SS United States, launched in 1952 and was designed by naval architect William Francis Gibbs as a joint project of the United States Navy and United States Lines. The record-breaking American ocean liner still holds the Blue Ribbon for the fastest transatlantic crossing. Built at Newport News Shipbuilding, the 990 foot vessel served until 1969 before decades of neglect, multiple ownership changes, and the loss of its original interiors. After nearly 30 years moored in Philadelphia under the care of the SS United States Conservancy, a 2025 rent dispute forced its relocation to Mobile, Alabama, where it was purchased by Okaloosa County, Florida, for transformation into the world’s largest artificial reef. The project is overseen by Alex Fogg, Okaloosa County’s Natural Resources Chief, a leading marine conservation specialist known for managing major artificial reef deployments, combating invasive lionfish through the Emerald Coast Open, and advancing coastal resource initiatives. Under Fogg’s leadership, the SS United States is undergoing remediation in Mobile before its planned sinking off Destin–Fort Walton Beach, where it will be honored both as a monumental artificial reef and through a dedicated land-based museum celebrating its historic legacy.
