I mean, there is a pretty big difference between saving an old building and saving an old ship. Seawater is ever consuming and there’s a point of no return for all ships. There’s only so many ships that can be saved and not enough interest for passenger liners. I think it also got screwed by the demise of NCL America which might have put it back to use.

Our autocross club runs in that lot. It’s a lot of land, but it’s not actually near anything of note. It does have some easy access to the expressway but also not a lot of local infrastructure otherwise. AC is just too far from Philly or New York to become a large metropolitan area, and doesn’t have a sustainable industry of its own (outside the casinos which are going to hurt more now that Philly has better options). And it’s not like the Pineys actually want to go or live there either. I don’t see the opportunity in that area without some major redevelopment.
