Not at all. More like the dilapidated low rises on both the
eastern and
western ends of Market Street, the
Children's Place building across from 2 Liberty, etc.
But also was just being realistic; that it's much more likely for developers to buy and raze buildings such as the examples I shared above before they start knocking down wholly functionable high rises (however ugly it is).
Surely I agree that it's one of the first high rise buildings I'd choose to replace along with some of the neighboring nondescript Penn Center buildings. Honestly, I don't know - I guess they can reskin and go residential but it's just such a boring ass building.
Other nominations I'd love to see replaced in a fantasy world are the
Rittenhouse Claridge and
its equally offensive neighbor. Those two buildings are unworthy of taking up space on the City's most prestigious real estate.
