A ceremony was held Wednesday morning to celebrate the infrastructure improvement project that is underway on Broad Street inside the Navy Yard.
The 734-foot stretch of Broad Street between Crescent Drive and Intrepid Avenue is known as the 'quay wall'. The bridge, constructed in the late 1800s, is the main access in and out of the Navy Yard. Broad Street was built right over it."We have a 120-year-old timber structure that's been submerged in the Delaware River for many, many, many years, and that was really starting to deteriorate," said Kate McNamara, senior vice president for PIDC at the Navy Yard.
"We have to completely reconstruct the structure. We have to move it 13 feet inland to make sure that it's really solid, and it's able to support the level of traffic that is going to be coming," said McNamara.
