The area will be branded “uCity Square — A Community of Ingenuity” and will seek to be the epicenter of “innovation and collaboration between the private sector and top-tier research institutions such as University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University.”

Large-scale projects, such as uCity Square, make not only educational and research institutions more competitive but also the city – helping to spur economic development activity throughout the region. These sort of developments seek to harness the confluence of innovation and academic pursuits that ultimately translate into new business development.

The Science Center with its development partner plan to build high-density, mixed-use projects that aim to create a cohesive community that is active throughout the day and not just during business hours.

The University City Science Center campus is getting a new name - uCity Square - that its leaders hope captures better the inclusive urban vibe they are seeking to cultivate at the West Philadelphia site.

Though the science center itself will continue as a business incubator and research hub under its current name, the campus on which it operates is being rebranded as part of its $1 billion expansion in partnership with developer Wexford Science & Technology, officials announced Tuesday.

"UCity Square will be a true mixed-use community comprised of offices and lab space for companies of all sizes, while adding more residents and neighbors to the mix with shopping, dining, housing, and jobs," Stephen Tang, the center's chief executive, said in prepared remarks.

I'm a little confused. I didn't see any mention of the specific floor count or number of buildings that are going to be constructed now. I read it as more of a long term plan. Where did the "4 towers | 27, 15, 13 & 12 FLOORS" come from?

I counted the floors of the buildings depicted in the renderings. I understand these floor counts might not be set in stone, but it's an estimate until we get more in depth figures. I'm only including the buildings north of Filbert in this thread, since there is already a thread for 3601 Market, 3675 Market, 3400 Market and 3800 Market and obviously 3701, 3711 and 3737 Market are already completed.

North of Filbert, there look to be 10 buildings. The floor counts for the buildings look like 27, 15, 13, 12, 10, 10, 8, 6, 4, 4. We'll see what the official numbers are when they move forward.

Hip to be uCity Square: Science Center Unveils Vision, New Name


http://cdn.phillymag.com/wp-content/...45-937x623.jpg
Photo of the site

Quote:

Market Street is exploding with development, and the University City Science Center is looking to position it campus as the western anchor of Philadelphia’s burgeoning innovation corridor. That starts with re-thinking about what the Science Center has been, what it is today and what it’s going to become.

The answer to that last bit was unveiled yesterday on the rooftop of a parking structure that will eventually become the corner of the soon-to-be re-introduced 37th and Market Street. As both a brand and a place, the Science Center will henceforth be known as uCity Square.

"Science Center’s campus for over 50 years has been largely two-dimensional with buildings on both sides of Market Street," said Dr. Stephen Tang, President and CEO of the University City Science Center. "This is really a third dimension, the whole uCity Square concept."

The massive development project will see the Science Center swell from over 1 million square-feet to 6 million square-feet by the time the 10-year, $1 billion (plus) plan is completed. The addition of the University City High School site directly north of Market Street makes it all possible to create this new live/work/play environment, with what developers Wexford Science + Technology call "a community of ingenuity" full of a mix cutting edge lab, office and retail space.

With Comcast building a second tower, Independence Blue Cross taking over the 1900 block of Market, a world-class Eds and Meds sector, the expansion of the Navy Yard, Drexel's nearby Innovation Neighborhood and a tech scene emerging in neighborhoods like Old City and Midtown Village, Philadelphia is rapidly making a case as a rising center for innovation. It just needs to become a "known" player on the scene.

"The kind of vibe we’d like to have here is similar to what they have in Mission Bay, San Francisco, Where they have a residential component tied to the actual office and lab for innovation," said Tang. "It’s actually something that goes beyond what iconic places like Kendall Square have. Kendall Square has great space for labs and offices, but not much in terms of residential or retail. I think that we’re hoping to bring all that together."

Reagan explained they have what amounts to essentially six development pads,"they’re all sized so that they accommodate a center core for a lab office building or a residential building." The first two projects include 3675 Market, which is currently a parking garage and will bring back 37th Street and connect it through the site to Lancaster Avenue, and a low-rise residential building at the where Lancaster and Powelton avenues meet at the north end of the development.

"We anticipate that, besides the low-rise residential up against Lancaster and Powelton, that there is the opportunity," Reagan explained, "if the market demand is such, that we could accommodate another, in this case, mid rise or high rise residential on the scale of 3601 Market or the scale of 3737 Chestnut … around 300 to 350 units."

Any to ensure the next crop of innovators doesn't live and work in an environment as sterile as one of the clean rooms in the Science Center, the new neighborhood will be anchored by walkable streets, plenty of retail and a lively square, which Reagan referred to as the" College Green" of the Science Center. "uCity Square will become that kind of place ... a signature outdoor space," he said.

I have to think this is being developed with at least one or two somewhat sizeable tenants in mind.

Penn has a lot of partnerships brewing with Novartis and other pharmaceutical companies from what I know from my personal relationships (i.e. friends who are scientists at Penn). The partnerships are focused on commercialization of discoveries made in Penn Labs...I have to think that there is enough productive work being done in these labs at this point that there might be critical mass to co-locate pharma space nearby to keep the company scientists close to the academics.

This has already happened in Cambridge with Novartis, Sanofi, and others who have only opened facilities in that area in the past ten years and now employ literally thousands. I just checked and Novartis has almost 3,000 employees in Cambridge. Sanofi has 1,600. Biogen has 2,600 and Pfizer has 1,000.

MIT and Harvard were about 10-15 years ahead of Penn in establishing these relationships. In fact, I recall when Novartis built their first building in Cambridge...it may have been only 8 years ago.

Something is definitely happening. And it could be huge. I don't think this contiguous space is being lined up for a bunch of small scale start ups (although that's needed as well). I think these massive blocks are being assembled/proposed/pitched with particular companies in mind.

Here's to hoping.

Now for Google. Time for them to open an office in town as well. Maybe Comcast can help with that.

UPenn18 Sep 17, 2015 8:13 PM

Can't wait for this whole thing to be built out, even though it's a long way off. Hope the design remains the same. I can only think that this will accelerate the increase in land values in Powelton and Mantua, making the capping of the railyards more feasible in the long term future. Hopefully this, and the various other tracts of land in UCity, will absorb office and residential growth over the next 30 years, and then we'll FINALLY be ready for the railyards.

It also helps that there has been a settlement in the Dr. June/Penn case in regards to "killing cancer" which has a direct link to Novartis. With that cutting edge research and productive results, one can only hope for continued progress.

Massive $1B uCity Square Project Could Benefit Community

Quote:

For $1 billion, University City Science Center will double in size with plans to revamp the 14-acre former University City High School property as well as interact with the surrounding communities. Science Center President and CEO Steve Tang told Technical.ly that he hopes to not only redevelop the property, but engage with the surrounding communities in order to buck the trend of gentrification. "What's happened in the past, when Penn and Drexel were beginning to grow, was that there was a lot of displacement and tension between the neighborhoods and the institutions. We're trying to create an environment where there's really a community between the two," said Tang. Some of the ways that Tang will contribute to the community is by building a K-8 school nearby. The Science Center will invest in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programs at the planned school. Science Center is currently working with the developer Wexford Science + Technology to construct that project. The new development, called uCity Square, will feature office buildings, public spaces, and businesses that will extend North of Market Street up to Powelton Street. The first of two phases is expected to finish in two years.

Nashville developer selected to build first UCity Square apartment building

Quote:

Southern Land Co. has been selected to develop the first residential building planned for the University City Science Center campus-expansion project known as uCity Square, a company official said.

The Nashville-based developer will soon begin design work on the roughly 300-unit, five- or six-story apartment building at 3700 Lancaster Ave., said Dustin Downey, director of multifamily development.

Downey spoke Wednesday at the unveiling of the company's 3601 Market apartment project, the first residential building on the campus's existing footprint. Southern Land is also planning a residential tower at 1911 Walnut St. beside Rittenhouse Square.

I guess I should have done a floor count. I was just looking for something with height. It's approximately the same height as the 15(?) story building next to it, which must be LEED.

The floor counts are accurate. Take a look at the second image. The taller building on the left is a 27 floor apartment building. The building on the right, is a 15 floor office building. Office buildings tend to have higher floor to ceiling ratios than residential buildings.

For instance, 3737 Market has 17' ceilings. Assuming this office building would be the same (same developers, architects), that means this building would be 255 feet tall.

Residential buildings on the other hand, usually have 10 foot ceilings, which means we're likely looking around 270 feet for the residential building.

Apparently the site along 38th Street will house temporary surface parking lots to allow for the demolition of the garage along Market and to make way for the 3675 Market office building development. The rest of the site will also be developed first, and the site along 38th Street will be developed last.

Frontst17 Mar 29, 2016 5:17 PM

I appreciate how that article points out that even though there has been steady population loss since the 70s (until recently), this has been mostly in the outer areas of the city whereas Center City and University City has in fact grown steadily in a healthy and intelligent way. There was no boom that we see in Sunbelt cities, however Center City was pieced back together and we are now seeing the fruits of this in said outer areas with new housing and infill popping up literally everywhere. Its easy to say that Philadelphia has been a dead city for decades, however a closer look shows a slow resuscitation that is still gaining momentum and we now look no further than these Ucity projects for this Boom that we've been waiting for that a strong, mature, city can support. I see this overbuilding in many "young" cities becoming a big problem in the near future. The development in Philadelphia over the last several decades has been very sustainable.

summersm343 Apr 5, 2016 1:33 AM

New info from uCity square PDF. Looks like the first tower will be One uCity Square at the corner of what will be 37th and Arch? What will be the cross street?

Either way, they're claiming an estimated 2018 completion, which means this will probably start work by the end of the year to make that timeline.

Wexford acquired by Ventas for $1.5 billion.

I wonder if this sale will affect this development, or if it even includes these parcels (since the UCSC is the landowner I'm not sure it would have been included in the deal). The article notes that:

Quote:

The portfolio involves 23 operating properties with 4.1 million square feet and two development assets comprising around 400,000 square feet of space. The company is also buying nine development sites mainly adjacent to existing assets.

Tenants of these assets comprise leading universities, academic medical centers and research companies, including Yale University, the University of Pennsylvania Health System, Washington University in St. Louis, Wake Forest University and Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

As part of the buyout, Ventas will enter into an agreement that would allow the company exclusive rights to jointly develop future projects with Wexford. On the other hand, Wexford will continue to manage the portfolio and be independently owned and operated.
Simply reading between the lines seems to indicate that Ventas does plan on continuing to develop the sites that Wexford planned on developing.

summersm343 Jul 13, 2016 4:38 PM

This acquisition will have no affect on uCity Square or any future development plans between Wexford and UCity Science Center.

The first projects will be the apartment complex fronting Lancaster Ave and the 'One uCity Square' office building at what will be the intersection of 37th and Warren Streets as well as the park/plaza/square next to it at 37th and Arch.

This is One uCity Square:

From the bizjournals article about the office market:

Quote:

To ease that pressure, new office buildings are in the pipeline. Construction of 3675 Market St. is underway. The 350,000-square-foot building will have office and lab space, which is already getting gobbled up.

“We have handshakes for about half of it,” Garvey said, declining to disclose the names of the firms that have indicated they want to occupy space in the building.

Even more space is on the way for University City. Garvey said he is already getting feelers for 3800 Market St., a 750,000-square-foot complex that will be constructed in two phases.
This mean we should be seeing 3675 Market soon and I guess the 3800 Market building after. Good news!

1487 Aug 3, 2016 7:55 PM

^both of the buildings mentioned are separate from UCity square- they are being developed by the Science CEnter on Market Street while Ucity is on the old UC HS site north of market.

New marketing pdf
 
Their materials have been updated slightly: http://ucitysquare.com/inc/overview.pdf

The new version is the first I've seen to mention a delivery date for "One UCity Square." They give it a 2018 delivery date on Page 7. That same page also calls out 3400 and 3800, projects that've been on the table for awhile, but interesting to see them give some sort of prioritization to the buildout beyond 3675.

3700 Lancaster

Looks like the first residential buildings at uCity Square is moving forward. Looks to be 6 floors, have 320 apartments and ground floor retail.

http://ucitysquare.com/wp-content/up...M-1170x500.png

http://ucitysquare.com/wp-content/up...M-1170x500.png

Currently in pre-development, 3700 Lancaster is a low-rise market-rate apartment building offering studio, efficiency, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom apartments. Located on the historic Lancaster Avenue corridor and just steps from the labs, offices, maker spaces, and amenities throughout uCity Square, 3700 Lancaster will place residents at the intersection of history and innovation.

This is a pleasant surprise. I heard rumblings that the rental market in University City was over-saturated and that this project was being pushed back for a while.

The design, however, is lackluster.

New2Fishtown Sep 22, 2016 3:27 PM

I heard recently that 3601 Market is only about 60% leased up after being open for a full year. That is likely far below projections for a building like that, so I'd be surprised for the same developer to move forward anytime soon with additional supply.

If this is true developers need to pressure the city government to reform policies that are keeping new businesses away.

3737 Chestnut is 96% leased... so it's not the UCity market.
