The Navy Yard recently announced a $6 billion transformation plan, with a goal of creating 12,000 jobs and bring more people to the growing South Philadelphia campus.

"It's going to bring $6 billion worth of investment to the city, approximately 12,000 new jobs and it's going to bring the first residential community here since the base closed," said PIDC Vice President Kate McNamara, who is responsible for planning, design, construction, infrastructure, transportation, facilities operations, and real estate development at the Philadelphia Navy Yard.
