From the article:
Among the port’s planned investments are a new 2,000-foot berth at the Southport Marine Terminal that would be the facility's first new berth in 50 years. The 152-acre Mustin Yard site, which PhilaPort bought for $90 million in 2025, is planned to increase capacity for both auto and container cargo.
From the state funding, PhilaPort plans to spend $31 million to support dredging at its Southport Berth, $145 million for reclamation work at Southport Berth II and the North Wharf, $109 million for land purchases and $58 million for crane and equipment acquisition.
PhilaPort will also invest in improvements at the Tioga Marine Terminal berth to better handle liquid bulk barges and breakbulk vessels that carry oversized cargo, and to support cargo capabilities.

A top aide to Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal revealed in court that an internal audit had recently uncovered $20 million in undisbursed money — including tax revenue and utility payments that should have gone into city coffers.
The stunning disclosure of misplaced sheriff-sale proceeds — which amount to more than half the office’s annual budget — came during a two-day hearing as Bilal and her staff seek to back out of a judge’s plan to appoint an independent supervisor to monitor the office’s troubled process.
