For me, it's just that more is happening on the Sansom side of the block. Target is nice and the theatre lobby renovation will be great, I"m sure. However, on the Chestnut side, there's still a bland cinder-block Gap building and a parking lot, etc., that this doesn't address. I'm very happy that a third of the Chestnut side is getting a facelift, but it seems less revolutionary than will be the case on the Sansom side.
