Treetop Adventure Course may be built in Wissahickon Park. Estimated income $40,000-50,000.
This is a really good idea imo, there needs to be more of this type of thing in the park.

--Sandy, who wrote it. I'll admit the reference is hard to get: it was to the fact that two of the four eateries that have announced they will open in the complex are branches of New York City establishments while the other two are purely homegrown.

If they land in Philly, that would be fine with me.

If they move to Camden, that would be GREAT!

Well Sandy you know we are little uptight about the whole NYC thing

I have to admit that headline was confusing to me too. I thought it was referring to people mixing it up at a cocktail party. But I really like that blog!

Philadelphia will host World Family Day 2015, possibly with pope in attendance

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet, although I guess this might not be the right thread. I am an ex-Catholic, but I still think it will be pretty amazing for the city. 1 million people came to a Papal open air mass in Milan at the same event and 1 million came to see John Paul II's mass on the parkway in 1979!

I would assume former RCA space, for last I heard, Campbell Soup has no plans to move its world headquarters out of Camden and its manufacturing plant there has long since bit the dust.

Info and renders about Penn's College House at Hill Square. Looks like 7 floors. Seems like they won't be developing the Southern portion of the field... wonder if they are saving it for a taller tower later? That would be interesting

Too lazy to post all the renders right now so take a look through
