Well the one on the far right is already built. The two on the left are a definite go. The far left will break ground next year and has signed FMC and the University of Pennsylvania as two tenants to fill up 61% of the building. The second from the left is currently under construction (see image above). The second from the right is still a proposal. Likely a few years away from any definitive plans.
Great! I was wondering the same thing where it went. It doesn't show up on the Philadelphia Projects & Construction page like before. I was having trouble finding it!
Hey everybody.... I'm a long time lurker and appreciate all the information I gather from this forum. My friends think I'm brilliant because of you guys... thanks for making me sound smart!
Anyway, I figured I would finally contribute and share a little information I heard from one of the Sales Managers at Evo regarding the construction. She said they were doing some sort of "pre-fab" type of construction were they basically just had to place each floor on top of one another. That's why its going up so fast.
I told her about this forum and told her to log on and give us more info, but she said they weren't allowed to do that. But she said I could pass along information for her.... stay tuned...

I think what she meant by that was prefabricated concrete form's that they lift into place. Its typically used on a lot of high rise concrete jobs. The typical pour cycle is 3 days per floor once you get above the third floor.
The technique of concrete forming systems is fascinating. Look on You Tube (Doka). A simple geometry like Evo is easier than 1900 Arch....but it is annoyingly slow. As long as 1900 obscures that ugly apartment building, I'm happy.
