The move to the Schuylkill Yards development area, which is estimated to cost $370 million, will bring 2,000 jobs to the city in the next five years, according to a Whyy.org report.
The retailer is receiving $30 million in incentives from Pennsylvania's Department of Community and Economic Development.
Burlington operates1,300 stores in 47 states, including 43 in the Philadelphia area.
