The money would also support a state foundation that tries to find other former patients.
Robert Hudson Westover, chairman of the S.S. United States Foundation, which works to celebrate the ship as a seagoing monument, said this week that he had received no further word from the company.
"I feel like it's my wedding day, I feel like it's my birthday, I feel just ecstatic," said Robert Hudson Westover, the chairman of the S.S. United States Foundation, which he set up in 1996, and which has worked to preserve the ship and find a buyer.
The company's 991-foot flagship, the trans-Atlantic liner United States, never used Pier 76, being several hundred feet too long, said Dan S. Trachtenberg, chairman of the S.S. United States Foundation, a nonprofit group based in Washington that wants to save the famed ship.

The code that allows Politwoops to operate was originally developed by Dutch organization the Open State Foundation over three years ago.
Politwoops is run by The Sunlight Foundation in the U.S., and by its creator, The Open State Foundation elsewhere.
