The U.S.S. Arizona lies where it sank. It was designated a memorial site in tribute to those who died, many of whom were trapped inside, and those who were wounded. The site is protected by law. It will not be raised.
Because the ocean reclaims almost anything, it has also become a living memorial for ocean life, an artificial reef of sorts.
