Yorkship Village
Yorkship Village was a Federally funded World War I planned community of approximately 1000 homes located near New York Shipbuilding of Camden, New Jersey, and intended to provide housing for the shipyard's workers and their families. New York Shipbuilding had more than tripled in size due to war contracts, and the influx of shipyard workers was overwhelming the Camden housing market.
