Condos starting around $1M in an A+ location would draw in a lot of buyers. Seems more like a typical underscore of the Center City buying market vs. a smart business move.

Meanwhile the City Living sector of Toll sees money at Broad & Noble...

But agree, there is some misplaced blame. Once again the city seems to escape blame for this mess... similar to the U City Townhomes mess.
Just to Clarify, City Living is Toll’s Condo division: https://www.tollbrotherscityliving.com/about

…and Toll Brothers Apartment Living® is Toll’s rental apartment division: https://www.tollbrothersapartmentliving.com/leadership/

Broad & Noble is by their Apartment Living division. The Jewelers’ Row condo plan was a City Living project.
