I think if this is successfully done, we could see North Broad making leaps and bounds in next 5 years.

It's pretty remarkable (in a shitty way) that that entrance was built as a clover-style highway entrance rather than the "parallel service road" type of highway entrance (e.g., Vine St to 676 E). Crazy to have that right in the heart of the city - you can see from the pictures how much space it wastes, an entire city block.
