There's a part of me that has a gut feeling that there's already a tenant lined up for this one. What they're building here is so unique compared to anywhere, really, including Cambridge. It's rare to have grade A lab/clean space in an urban environment let alone a skyscraper. I just have a hunch we're going to see a big name emblazoned across one of these big new buildings (i.e. genentech/novartis/jansen etc). It's just what my gut is telling me.

Penn has really kicked it's research into high gear in the past decade, and with the Biden visit to Penn post-Obama's "challenge" to eradicate cancer makes me think something truly special is in the works.

In addition, it feels like the time line for this first building is even faster than was initially speculated.

Fingers crossed. Could be huge for the city's economy.
