SS United States’ Funnels Preservation Underway
The towering funnels of the legendary SS United States, soaring six stories high and sloping backward to convey the record-breaking speed of the ship, will form a dramatic centerpiece of the future SS United States Museum and Visitor Experience.
The funnels will join thousands of curatorial items, both large and small, that already have been saved, restored and preserved for display at the eagerly anticipated land-based museum.
