SS United States must leave its South Philadelphia berth by mid-September, judge rules

The SS United States, a record-setting historic ship, is required to leave its berth in Philadelphia by Sep. 12, as ruled by U.S. District Judge Anita Brody.
A long-standing rent dispute between the ship's conservancy and landlord Penn Warehousing led to the decision following a rent increase disagreement in 2021.
Despite the ruling, Penn Warehousing's demand for increased fees did not align with the contract, but they had the right to terminate the agreement with reasonable notice under Pennsylvania law.
