| More than 80,000 people have visited and sailed
aboard former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's beloved "Floating
White House," the USS Potomac, since it opened to the
public in the summer of 1995. $5 million has been spent over a 12-year
period to restore the 165-foot-long vessel as a memorial to the president
who authored the New Deal and led the United States during the Great
Depression and the World War II years. |
