Station Redevelopment
Amtrak has contracted with the Plenary Infrastructure Philadelphia (PIP) consortium to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the station improvements for the next 50 years as part of a public-private partnership (P3) agreement. Major elements of the station renovation include: modernizing and expanding station retail, consolidating station operations, upgrading The Porch landscaping and community amenities, modernizing Amtrak corporate offices, and enhancing building infrastructure to achieve and maintain a ‘state of good repair.’ More information on each major Project element is below.
