If it doesn't start shortly now that this is wrapping up, we'll move this thread back to proposals until phase 2 starts.
I don't understand, will they build the additional 8 floors while the building is occupied and in operation? Also, they already took the tower crane down.
Looks like the rest of this building is finally moving forward!
Penn’s Center for Healthcare Technology Will Get Rooftop Addition

To be honest, we figured that an addition would take years to come to fruition if it happened at all, so we were delighted to learn that things are indeed pushing forward, forthwith. So, what’s to come? An additional nine stories, which calls for more office space to be topped by a couple of mechanical floors. Plans are for a seamless addition, meaning the end product is slated to look like the entire building went up at once. Another little fun tidbit is that the original height has been raised by about 20 feet for all you skyline fans. Past renderings (which look like they will be slightly adjusted) and current elevation drawings from zoning documents give us a better idea of what’s in store.
I bet if Penn knew how rapidly life sciences was going to take off, they probably wouldn't have built this in phases lol. It does seem a little ridiculous to be doing a 9-story addition just a few years later but hey, not like Penn's doesn't have money.

Ha! Kinda funny that these life science start-up that get seed money are spun out of their programs. Left hand isn't talking to the right hand...LOL.
