There could be an uncertain future for one of Palm Beach County's most historic landmarks.
The John F. Kennedy Bunker on Peanut Island is at the center of some controversy.
What was once a safe shelter for America's 35th president, now may not be so safe itself, if you ask Anthony Miller.
"The biggest concern is keeping a very important piece of history in this area," said Miller.
Miller is the manager for Palm Beach Maritime Museum. The company runs the historic bunker on Peanut Island along with the Coast Guard station and boathouse.
"You can only last so long when you start drying up all the funds that you're supposed to have to run a museum," said Miller.
The Maritime Museum has a lease with the Port of Palm Beach Commission to run the facilities on the island.
However, Miller says the Port Board has been thwarting his efforts to fund raise and ultimately fix up the facilities on the property. He says he's tried for special events, a restaurant, grants, even a fundraising program, all of which, Miller says have faced challenges by the Board.
He fears the Maritime Museum is getting pushed out. His bigger fear then is what the Port Board may have in store for the historic attraction.
"I think it would be a shame if it was used for another purpose other than educating people in the area," said Miller.
The attorney for the Port of Palm Beach Board of Commissioners, Greg Picken, says the Port Board has no intentions of knocking down the historic site.
Picken says the historic facilities need millions of dollars of rehabbing, which he says will likely not be done before the lease runs out.
The lease with the Maritime museum is up in less than two years. The Port Board says it is confident that there will be "more suitable alternatives for management of the property," citing legal battles and dysfunction involving the Maritime Museum's own board, in addition to the property's current condition.
