Plan Philly

When the University of Pennsylvania acquired DuPont’s old Marshall Labs site downriver from the main campus, the vision for this new turf quickly became clear. The 23-acre site could become a new kind of research and development campus that supports entrepreneurship and helps define an Innovation District on the Lower Schuylkill.

This fall Penn will officially celebrate the opening of the Pennovation Center, its first major investment to anchor the broader Pennovation Works campus.
