Reports indicate that a company that has repaired cruise ships plans to set up a second operation in Philadelphia. The new shipyard will be called PennShip Service. Under an agreement, PennShip will lease the site next to the Aker Philadelphia Shipyard. The sites are part of the former Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, which closed in 1996. Source: AP
