Yes, Moravian, and the previous developers wanted to strike Moravian st from the grid, which I believe these guys would want to do as well. And I didn't like it for the Drannoff project on South Broad, nor do I like it here, I like our public streets especially our smallest ones, they make Philly unique in the States.
When you really look at the site plan of the lots, it really is 3 distinct lots, you have the lot with the old buildings, the lot facing Walnut and the lot on the corner of 20th, Moravian and Sansom. To me it really doesn't make sense to combine these lots, its an awkwardly shaped lot. I think I'd feel slightly different if we had fewer big lots, but we have several and huge swathes of land all over the city that could be developed. I just don't see why they should destroy these buildings, even for a good design. I hate combining lots, it makes the city more bland and boring. Compare Walnut st to Market West, Walnut is so much better to walk down because it has smaller lots that make the street feel human scale. And the thing that really irks me is its not like all of these buildings are squat 2 story buildings like they were at 10 Rittenhouse, the one building is 7 stories? We are talking decent density. Any way, I know many disagree with me so I'll end my rant now.
As an aside, I would welcome infinite height on the other two lots
