Cruising from Philadelphia

The cruise ship terminal at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard will see more than 92,000 travelers this year, 50% more than last (see story). In fact, cruising from Philadelphia has become so popular that some are concerned that the former Navy Yard will run out of capacity for passenger handling. Not to worry. The Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation - the agency that manages and markets the Naval Yard - is working with the Philadelphia Port Authority to find expansion space.
