Philly is still underdeveloped too in a lot of spots considering its age-- if it's ever built out and up to all its potential...wow. One can dream. But I'm very hopeful after seeing all the plans laid out in the last year for this, and Schuylkill Yards, and the general trajectory of the city the last 20 years.

The western expansion of the skyline was and is inevitable--due to 30th Street Station, the universities, and large portions of underdeveloped lands along the river.

Along with hoping these plans all come to fruition over the next 20 years, I'm hoping the Delaware River finally becomes the waterfront neighborhood it should be -- lined with apt/condo towers, a light rail, city parks, and a fun bar scene. Some day. Anyways, exciting times in the olde Birthplace of America. It will be fun to go back to these comments/posts years down the road to see how things develop, and if our optimism becomes reality. Cheers.
