The Battery

The Battery project involves the renovation of the abandoned Delaware Power Station, which supplied power to Philadelphia until 2004. The 500,000 SF facility includes a two-story residential addition, event spaces, and offices. Langan developed an investigation plan to obtain depths and locations of utilities within the site, including the outfalls. We also worked closely with the Philadelphia Water Department to develop a design that met stormwater management regulations and limited project improvements through the agency’s right-of-way. Following the building renovation, the next project phase will provide a 300-space parking lot, landscaping, stormwater management, site lighting, and a 900-foot waterfront trail connecting the site to the Delaware River Trail in Penn Treaty Park.
