See full version: List of passenger ships built in the United States
The only US-built deep water passenger ships still in existence today are the SS United States (laid up), former converted cargo liner SS Medina (hotel ship), cargo/passenger liner NS Savannah (museum ship), and the partially US-built Pride of America (still in service). Today, only small coastal and river passenger ships are still built in the U.S. and fly the American flag. [links]
The largest passenger liner built in the United States to date is the SS United States, completed in 1952. [3] The last large passenger liner to be completed in the United States was Moore-McCormack Lines' SS Argentina in 1958. [4] [links]
As a result of the Merchant Marine Act of 1920, only ships built and registered in the United States are permitted to sail solely between ports in the United States. [1] [2] The Merchant Marine Act of 1928 would continue to incentivize and spur the construction of U.S. built ships through government loans, which would lead the International Mercantile Marine Company and along with other U.S. run shipping lines to order new ships through up through World War II.

The primary yards that were building passenger ships in the 20th century include:
Notes: Every design that includes an Orbital Habitat Module can be built by industry as well as by a shipyard. This can be used to build arbitrarily large industrial bases that could include Terraforming modules, Sorium Harvesters or Asteroid Mining Modules without the need for a shipyard. After designing the class, retool a shipyard to build it or select "Build PDC/Orbital Habitat" in the industry tab.
Shipyards industrial capacity can be improved by expansion of the capacity of slipways, increasing the maximum construction tonnage of ships they can handle; or by producing more slipways, increasing the number of ships that the shipyard can build concurrently. more
Smaller ships will take longer than the racial shipbuilding rate would suggest. Still assuming a Racial Shipbuilding Rate of 1000 BP, a 2000 ton ship is 0.4x the size of a 5000 ton ship. Half the difference takes it to 0.7, so its annual construction rate will be 700 BP. A 1000 ton ship will be built at 600 BP per annum. [links]
