Looks like this will finally be moving along

Quote:
The Philadelphia City Planning Commission voted Thursday to approve Councilman Mark Squilla’s bill that would add a small subset to the Old City zoning overlay, allowing for larger and denser projects in the area surrounding the approach to the Ben Franklin Bridge.
Quote:
The bill provides size and density bonuses to projects in CMX-3 lots in the area between I-95, Race Street, New Street, and 4th Street.
Quote:
The bill was conceived as a response to the proposed development at 205 Race Street, a 16-story, 128-unit mixed-used apartment complex.
