Have you been to Walnut Street recently? It's not exactly 5th avenue in terms of upscale shopping - which is fine. But there's some vacancies that have been there for years... and the newest "additions" are banks. I've wondered if the FDP has a lot of interested retailers in a holding pattern - unsure of whether to open on Walnut or Market East until the dust settles and FDP opens.

I honestly though wish they turned FDP floor plates to accommodate more bix box stores center city needs.
Bed Bath Beyond
Best Buy
Full Scale Target
But it did not take that route. For better or worst.
