I guess I should walk by there and see if this has really happened.

Demolition has not begun. But it's got to be any day now. There is real machinery onsite now.

When I was at UARTS, I had to walk past that lot nearly every day and was wondering when something would finally be done with it. Glad to see it finally going away!
EDIT fun fact: UARTS was wanting to build a high rise dorm on this very site in the early 2000's but the plans were NIMBY'D to death, so they converted 311 Juniper Street (in the background) instead. Another UARTS dorm conversion, 1228 Spruce St can be seen behind the yellow crane.... |
Has anyone been by this site this week to see whats going on?

There is a press conference scheduled for 11AM today to announce "more details" about the project. Im not sure if its a ground breaking or not. I am definitely curious.

Seems like it's Dranoff's attempt to steal some of 500 Walnut's thunder the day of that project's groundbreaking, since they're probably targeting the same condo buyers. |
Philippe Starck in Philly to talk about ode to Gamble and Huff in design of SLS:

I notice the article mentions construction starting in the fall.
