Chubb touches down in Philadelphia the week of its new tower opening

Chubb flew from Atlantic City to Northeast Philadelphia on June 19, a 40-minute hop in its Gulfstream G650ER (N846CB) that maxed out at just 5,300 feet. The brief flight lands Chubb’s senior team in the city the same week the company is making headlines for something other than insurance disputes.

That would be the grand opening of Chubb’s new 18-floor office tower at 2000 Arch Street, a $380 million investment the company celebrated on May 11 with Mayor Cherelle Parker and Governor Josh Shapiro, as reported by the City of Philadelphia’s Department of Commerce. The building will house nearly 3,000 employees and reinforces Chubb’s centuries-old ties to the city, where its oldest subsidiary, Insurance Company of North America, was founded in 1792. The trip comes as CEO Evan Greenberg faces a separate legal front: last month a court referee allowed the Archdiocese of New York to depose him in a clergy abuse coverage dispute, per Insurance Journal.

The Philadelphia arrival fits a pattern. Recent flights show Chubb’s G650ER shuttling between the New York area and Philadelphia multiple times this month, including a June 13 trip from Westchester County to the Philadelphia suburbs. With its legal headquarters in Zurich but its operational heart in the Northeast corridor, Chubb keeps its jet busy moving executives between the key cities where its business — and its courtroom battles — unfold.
