Designed by the same man who designed the ill-fated Morro Castle, this ship was supposed to have been the American answer to Germany's Bremen and Europa. Sadly, the design never got past the drawing boards.

I've got a larger version of the profile that I scanned from "Damned by Destiny". I had planned on drawing her and several other ships from the book, but other work put the kibosh on that.

Name of the designer is Theodore Ferris, who had also designed the type 1001 of wooden ships during WW1.
BTW seems that two of his ships designed had burned: the Morro Castle and Lenape
