Federal judge orders SS United States, historic ocean liner, to vacate South Philadelphia pier by September 12 due to rent dispute.

A federal judge has ruled that the SS United States, a historic ocean liner and the fastest passenger ship ever built, must vacate its South Philadelphia pier by September 12. The decision puts an end to a long-standing rent dispute between the ship's steward, SS United States Conservancy, and its landlord, Penn Warehousing. The SS United States has been docked in Philadelphia for over a decade.
