If leadership in City Hall showed even the most remote interest in attracting new businesses/companies into the city, then this tower would have a chance. But asking the mayor and council to do something logical is a dream.
Covid actually provides a chance for Philadelphia to lure business from New York, San Fran, Seattle and other expensive cities facing unrest.
Our suburban region seems to get that point, but not city leadership...
The anti-business mentality/environment makes projects like these almost impossible to get built, unless of course a company already in the city plays musical chairs (like Aramark and large law firms).

Good points. Facing budget shortfalls in every department, as the poorest major city in America attempts to weather an unprecedented global pandemic, the city should... ::checks notes::... Give money and financial incentives to big business?

Anywayyyyyy. Nice building, hope it's built.
