William H. Gray III 30th Street Station Redevelopment
Modernization and renovation of Amtrak’s third busiest station
Gilbane was selected as part of the Plenary Infrastructure Philadelphia (PIP) consortium to modernize and renovate Amtrak’s William H. Gray III 30th Street Station Redevelopment. The PIP consortium will 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.’
Project Overview
- Renovation of Amtrak’s Philadelphia corporate headquarters to create a more modern and efficient workplace
- Expand and modernize the station’s main and SEPTA levels with new food and beverage and retail options, including a new Food Hall
- A phased approach will allow the station to remain operational during construction
- Expansion of The Porch operations to include more public amenity space, ungraded landscaping, and amenities for community programming
“Gray 30th Street Station is the third busiest station in our national network and this partnership underscores Amtrak’s commitment to deliver on its vision of a world-class station experience for all travelers. The station as a grand gateway to Philadelphia and a tribute to honor the lifetime of service Congressman Gray provided to Philadelphia and Pennsylvania as a tireless advocate for disadvantaged communities.”
