PHILADELPHIA | Temple University Morgan Hall | 27 Floors | 312 feet
http://www.temple.edu/2020/projects/...South_0806.jpg
Title: Morgan Hall Project: 1,500 student beds, 3 story retail complex Architect: MGA Partners Developer: Temple University/ LF Driscoll Co. Location: Broad St. and Cecil B. Moore Ave., Philadelphia, PA Floors: 27 Height: 312 ft I figured this deserved a thread as well. This is not in Center City (Philadelphia's Central Business District), but it is still considered a high rise. Plans call for a 26 floor high rise at 312 feet, a 3 story retail complex branching off of the tower and an 8 story residential complex with a courtyard in the middle and an underground parking garage. This is currently under construction on the corner of Broad St. and Cecil B. Moore ave. on the Campus of Temple University in Lower North Philadelphia. The foundations are complete and concrete has begun to pour for it's underground parking garage. |
I'm doing some math and this building looks like it will come out somewhere around 300ft. Thats assuming 12ft celings like the last round of residence halls.
|
it should still have an impact on the skyline from certain vantage points at that height
|
They are still mostly pouring foundations but the forms and rebar for the bathtub are begining to appear.
|
We should see this rising shortly, walked past it today. Any word on who will be taking the retail spots?

Summer where did you get that render?

Hey Parkway here you go.

Image was taken by hamersklavier and posted on the temple thread so I thought I would post it here as well. I will post more when I have time.

I really need to just post a picture tomorrow seeing as my bedroom window looks out onto the growing foundation for the highrise.

Wow awesome! I couldn't tell that it was that far along from the street. Does anyone know if they're sticking with the plans of an underground parking garage? Also Parkway, I assume you reside in 1300 Residence Hall?

South Gateway will probably be Morgan Hall.
