The Navy Yard

Historic Site

The former Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, an important naval shipyard of the United States for almost two centuries, has been redeveloped. The shipyard on the Delaware River was closed in 1995 and is now a thriving riverfront community in South Philadelphia known as the Navy Yard. The Navy Yard is home to over 2,000 trees with garden beds thriving on the Delaware River waterfront, and is now a botanic highlight in Philadelphia.
