I would argue that this and Schuylkill Yards will put Philadelphia a step closer to being on the scale of something like Chicago in terms of cityscape and walkability/utter massiveness.
Sell me on this. Not sure how bland, modern lab space is really that game changing for your average PHL'er. I think all of the West Market - Science Center developments west of 36th are invariably good for the city/tax base, but the personal experience is sterile and bland and replicated at newer cities across the country on a much larger scale. Plus, UCity's scale is more low-rise and in keeping with what we've seen built here over the last decade.
