The Navy Yard is one of Philadelphia’s strongest economic engines, supporting 16,000 jobs today with billions in new investment on the way.
Economic opportunity starts with something simple: a reliable, lower-cost ride to work.
The new Route 45 routing adds daily @SEPTAPHILLY service to the @NavyYardPhila, making it easier for more Philadelphians to access good jobs and family-sustaining careers without the cost of driving.
That is economic mobility in action.
I’m at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, where we’re investing in the next stage of their growth and success through our PA SITES initiative to turn dirt into jobs.

I am proud to say that Philadelphia can now claim it has the largest sustainable neighborhood in the country, as verified by the @USGBC.
I want to congratulate the @NavyYardPhila, Ensemble/Mosaic, and @PIDCphila on this honor, and for all their work in building a neighborhood focused on energy efficiency, sustainability, and creating a Greener Philadelphia.
This certification ensures that the people who live, work, and visit the Navy Yard will know they are in a place that prioritizes their health, wellness, and the environment.
I’ve been at the Philly Portal for 30 minutes and it’s amazing. A guy in Lithuania approached the camera, unfolded a piece of paper and it said “GO BIRDS.” The way we all screamed!
