Good perspective of the EDDC redevelopment area in Downtown Erie.

The historic block on North Park Row (center left of photo) is undergoing complete renovation. I believe the only building not owned by EDDC is the narrow, red brick building on the left edge of the block (it houses apartments, and was renovated a couple years ago, though not to historic standards).

The shorter 1930s art moderne Greyhound Station building mid-block will be demolished for a new building with 3 historically-representative facades. The rear of the block will be new residential construction, as will be the block across West 5th St., where a surface lot and McDonalds previously existed.

Hopefully, this will spur development of the large surface parking lot on the East Perry Square, to the right of Richford Arms (the tallest building in the photo), as well as the multiple UPMC and Erie Insurance surface lots north to the Bayfront.
