I don't mind the elevated tracks there. Together with the new buildings it'll be a modern/industrial vibe.

Also from Drexel on Market, 2222 Market Street looks surprisingly big, as well as classy and modern.
I was on campus in October, and it's changed so much since I attended. The huge research building coming to JFK & Market will also add to the transformation of that stretch.

I wish the former Fire Stone would be turned into a permanent park vs. the makeshift setup. I assume the plot will be a building one day, but a campus welcome park would be nice. I am also glad the university removed the exit lane onto 32nd Street, it was so dangerous.
