There are currently fantastic views of the Philadelphia skyline from the Camden Rivershark's Stadium (Campbell's Field). That will not completely be the case anymore with the new tall building being built there. This news is really great and the build out to only take the next four to five years, amazing! I am still digesting if this is a good plan for public access to the river front, but initially it looks to be.
