After 60 years, Neshaminy Mall historic dioramas saved | Exclusive

Ten minutes. That’s how long it took to rescue the last three pieces of unique historical artwork from imminent destruction in Bucks County on Tuesday. Ten minutes after a week of careful planning, precise measuring and tricky demolition work necessary to free the large window-size dioramas in the now-closed Neshaminy Mall in Bensalem. The displays removed Nov. 10 were the last of seven animatronic dioramas depicting scenes from Colonial life during the American Revolution that were installed nearly 60 years ago as part of an intended permanent exhibit. With demolition of more than half of the mall property scheduled to start next month as part of a major mixed-use redevelopment of the property, Bensalem officials had pledged to save the last and most difficult to remove of the displays. Sally Van Sant Sondesky, founder and former president of the Bensalem Historical Society, was among the handful of onlookers Tuesday who got a close up view as they were removed. The scenes depicted William Penn signing a treaty with the Shackamaxon tribe; Ben Franklin’s 1785 return to Philadelphia from Paris and finally, the 1777-78 hiding of the Liberty Bell in Allentown. “You can’t do that anymore,” Van Sant Sondesky said of

SS United States, long docked in Philly, goes under the waves

The formerly Philadelphia-docked SS United States now rests at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. Why it matters: So ends the vessel's strange odyssey from the United States' largest ocean liner to Philly landmark to world's largest artificial reef . Driving the news: The controlled sinking began Wednesday afternoon roughly 22 nautical miles southwest of Destin-Fort Walton Beach in the Florida Panhandle. The sinking was slow going and stretched on for hours, but it was all over around 10pm when the ship fully disappeared into the water. Zoom in: The SS United States now joins a smorgasbord of other sunken vessels and artificial reefs for divers to explore off the beach. Plus: The ship's iconic red-white-and-blue smokestacks, as well as radar mast and a massive five-blade propeller were removed before the sinking — all of which will be incorporated into a land-based museum for the ship nearby. 👷 How it works: No explosives were used to sink the ship. Instead, crews strategically placed openings in the ship's hull and underwent a controlled flooding, which allowed it to rest in an upright position on the Gulf floor. Several compartments and lower deck areas that were deemed unsafe were also sealed
