Hill International is moving its headquarters from
Marlton to Center City Philadelphia, Gov. Corbett announced today.
Pennsylvania is offering Hill, a construction management
and consulting firm, $1.7 million in incentives through three programs to
relocate its headquarters and bring 222 jobs to Center City..
The company, with 4,400 employees worldwide already has a
Philadelphia office.
The governor's office said the company has leased nearly
60,000 square feet at One Commerce Square, at 2005 Market St., and will spend
about $8 million to turn the space into its headquarters.
Hill has accepted the funding proposal, but must still
apply for each program to receive the incentives, Corbett's office said.
David L. Richter, Hill's president and chief operating
officer, said the company was "exited" to be moving across the river.
"The ability to consolidate our two local offices
plus the many benefits of being located in the Center City business district
makes this a great move for our company," Hill said in a statement issued
by Corbett's officer.
