I loved watching the Roberts center rise on that side of the river. Look forward to seeing this one rise.

There was a breaking ground ceremony for this building today Per OCF IG. Looks like it is full steam ahead!

I guess technically no, it was a ground breaking ceremony, but the project is full steam ahead. Gilbane is the construction manager.

CHOP – Schuylkill Avenue Research Building ($3.25m received out of $3.25m asked)

Quote:

Number three on our countdown is a project that we reported on just a week or so ago, with CHOP hosting a recent groundbreaking at 2716 South St., where a new tower will rise. The 14-story Schuylkill Avenue Research Building (SARB) will house wet lab space for researchers and will sit directly next to the already completed Roberts Center. The full $3.25 million requested by CHOP was granted, with those funds going to support the construction of their growing riverfront campus.

Construction barriers are up on the South St bridge, so work seems imminent

PurpleWhiteOut · #30 Posted **Dec 15, 2022, 6:26 AM**

As an update, the garage entrance on the South St bridge (which will be the podium) says it will be closed in January.

The facade of the existing podium is coming off.

summersm343 · #34 Posted **May 2, 2023, 8:54 PM**

Since the first floor or two of this area already built, we'll say this one is under construction

From earlier today

Does this look like the start of a tower crane? I see ladders going up the structure, but I've never seen one with supports looking like this. Maybe because of the constrained site?

summersm343 · #38 Posted **Jul 14, 2023, 3:02 AM**

Definitely a tower crane base!

Broadcastthatboom · #39 Posted **Jul 22, 2023, 11:00 PM**

Tower crane is up!

TK2001 · #40 Posted **Jul 30, 2023, 4:53 PM**

Just captured the crane from NJ. Will post soon
