Thank you everyone for the responses, especially John III.
I'm not old enough to remember what that area was like pre-construction, and barely old enough to remember what it was like pre-addition. I often walk by it and wonder what it must've been like before. The way both the Convention Center and the Galler- erm Fashion District cantilever over 10th and 11th is certainly a unique dynamic and one that I can't picture a Philadelphia without. Everyone's comments have really help me understand what was lost. I just wish Phillyhistory had more photos, though. Not much exists of the Convention Center area pre-construction. |

In Google Earth, create the polygons that you wish to share. Or, locate the polygon group that currently exists in your Saved Places listing. right-click on the group, and choose Save Place As to save the locations in a KMZ file. Again, you'd have to share it on some kind of filesharing platform. I'm sure some tech-savvy person on this group has an easier way, but try this out. Thanks! |
I tried on Dropbox.

I think that's it. I'm a bit embarrassed of my filing system. When I started doing this I wasn't planning on it getting so involved. I think they're all there. |

Surprised this wasn't posted yet, but Council is considering delaying changes to the 10 year tax abatement until 2024 and introducing a 1% construction tax as a compromise (presumably, to win over more progressive members who want to get rid of the abatement altogether). Personally, I think this makes sense given we need to continue to make the City attractive to new residents. Even if prices of new construction go up 1% due to the tax, I'm pretty sure buyers would save money on their mortgage payments under the existing abatement scheme, at least after the first ~2 years.
