I was wondering about zoning-----it wasn't too long ago that a proposed 20 or 25 stories at 19th & Chestnut, in a very classy design, caused alot of people great pain and suffering. I'm glad to hear that won't be the case here.
Has Pearl ever proposed a project in CC that didn't get built? I wonder if it will turn into some kind of race to see who can get started first, this or the tower on Sansom St. that Southern has proposed to replace a parking garage and the much shorter tower built over the old Freeman's auction house between Chestnut & Sansom? (and there might be one other project I'm forgetting)
I know that a builder has to have plans approved before the end of the year to still use the 10 year tax abetment, but when does construction have to start or finish to take advantage of the same?
