(Philadelphia, PA) December 14, 2022 –  Jefferson Apartment Group (JAG) and Haverford Properties Inc. were joined today by city officials and the Delaware River Waterfront Corporation (DRWC) for a groundbreaking event at Rivermark Northern Liberties—the new 9-acre mixed-use development on the Delaware River waterfront formerly known as Festival Pier in Philadelphia’s Northern Liberties neighborhood.

The development includes an array of public-use features, including a large public plaza, splash pad water attraction, art installations, an extension of the Delaware River Trail, and public waterfront access, in addition to 470 luxury apartment units and 45,000 square feet of vibrant retail and restaurant space anchored by a Sprouts Farmers Market. Most recently, the site was home to the Festival Pier outdoor concert venue, which closed in 2019.  

The development is slated for completion in Spring 2024.
