设计者出于对海军旧部深厚历史的尊重，为城市旅行用品零售商设计改造了一个富有创造性的园区，并且保留了过去生产厂的部分元素，把废弃物改造成一件新的艺术品，使得社区充满了活力，符合了生态设计的要求。雅悦酒店位于城市中心，临近德拉瓦河，其私有土地已经变成了费城公有领地的一部分。

19世纪，在费城的联赛岛，城市旅行用品商总部在美国海军废弃的造船厂核心地区开拓了9英亩，占地面积进一步得到扩大。虽然这四个地方都在布罗德大街与特拉华河的交汇处，围绕一个522英尺长的干船坞，但是它们市中心所处的具体位置各不相同，四个企业品牌使得URBN抓住了一个机会建立起来一个新的公司，并且通过砌体建筑的独特设计显现了对环境的巨大适应性。

尽管美国海军在1996年离开此岛航行，但是原有的工业设施的骨干部分保留完好并未受到太大的影响。该地区交通便利，拥有超过一英里的铁路，它们将各地连接成网，展现了一个阿拉伯式花纹的巨大的南北粒单片结构。功利主义的历史工业过程的生成模式形成了这里独具特色的设计和广阔的路径，地面和茂密的植被都是这一设计的具体体现。

Respect for rich histories of the Navy Yard guides the design of a refashioned campus of creativity for retailer Urban Outfitters (URBN). Obsessively reworking traces of past productivity rebrands salvaged materials with an artistic vengeance, generating revitalizes community and ecological performance. On the civic axis to the Delaware River, URBN’s private venture becomes an extension of the public realm of Philadelphia and a well-dressed poster child for industrial redevelopment.

The Urban Outfitters Headquarters reclaims nine acres of the Historic Core at the decommissioned U.S. Naval Shipyard on what was, in the 19th century, League Island in Philadelphia. Adventuring out of their disparate locations downtown, the four corporate brands that make up URBN seized the opportunity to establish a new corporate campus through the adaptive reuse of huge masonry buildings centered on a 500 foot-long dry dock where the civic axis of Broad Street meets the Delaware River. The working traces of thousands of Navy men and women laid the groundwork to construct a new, dynamic landscape for the next generation of ingenuity.

Though the Navy sailed away from the island in 1996, they left the industrial bones of the site intact. Partially buried in a sea of asphalt, over a mile of old rail lines and crane ways provide an arabesque counter to the massive north-south grain of monolithic structures. The utilitarian pattern of historic industrial processes generated the design for sweeping paths, textured ground and dense plantings. New and revived landscape inscriptions amplify the sublime scale of the massive buildings, giant battleships anchored nearby, and jumbo jets zooming overhead. The strong landscape framework rendered with rich patinas, inspired by URBN design sensibility, orchestrates new productive flows and unifies the campus, rooting it in the site-specificity and history of the Yard.
