Unlikely, but I'd rather see that level of luxury near Rittenhouse Square. Perhaps 22nd & Walnut, which is a catalyst plot extending the Rittenhouse action further west. Center City's "high street" is only 4 blocks, west of 20th is a handsome (though a bit tired) stretch of real estate, just needs a glamour project as a boost. There is also the Parkway plot at 20th, which could support a slender tower.
Walking out of the Plaza Hotel at 8th and Market is not the best look (IMO).
I still like the idea of a hotel at 8th & Market, just not a tippy top tier.
