The Philadelphia Navy Yard built, repaired, and reinvented the ships that carried the U.S. Navy through war and peace. In 2026, we're marking three milestones tied to its history: 225 years since the yard opened in Southwark, 150 years since the move to League Island, and 30 years since its 1996 closing.
