Besides some crazy 'dream on' proposal for the Delaware river front, what was the last new high rise apartment/condo proposal that has been floated. This Walnut St. project only seemed to get out of starting blocks once Hines got involved. Does Philly need more out of town developers to get things built?
It seems like there are maybe 3 or 4 proposals for every new build, so if that theory holds water we need some more proposals, throw 4 into a hat and pick one. I'd like to see the 'Mellon Tower' get built.
