Thanks to johndoe4880 for providing us with the following information:

According to KYW Newsradio in Philadelphia, 'Transformers 2' is booked to film there soon.

Sharon Pinkenson, executive director of the Greater Philadelphia Film Office, told the station that tax credits are bringing a number of new features to the city and the robotic sequel is among them.

"With the Writers' strike, it really slowed down the immediate effect that we were going to have as a result of these tax credits and now that that strike is resolved we're rushing to get a bunch of movies made before the actors go on strike."

Wow, how many site locations will TF2 be filmed at? With all the moving, Im guessing Dreamworks and Michael Bay are trying to go way over TF1 with this one.

Well, if they're using Philadelphia it's as Philly. We have a rather distinct city. You really can't pass it off as anywhere else. I hope they has top shelf security though.
