Even with the new Comcast Tower topping out at 975 feet, overall office occupancy still climbed to 89%, as the expansion of existing firms and several new arrivals downtown pushed Class A rents up 14%. For the first time in 15 years, Center City increased its share of regional office space. Healthcare and educational institutions continued to attract students, patients and research dollars to downtown, while elementary schools experienced strong demand from the growing number of families in Center City with children. The Pennsylvania Convention Center expansion commenced and plans advanced for new hotels, as occupancy and room rates steadily climbed. On Independence Mall, the National Museum of American Jewish History started construction, while the Barnes Foundation retained designers for a new home on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Housing prices remained strong, rents steadily climbed and rental vacancy rates dropped to 4.6%, as new residents continued to flock to Center City. While the average condo sold for $428,596, 115 units sold in 2007 for more than $1 million, double the number in 2006.

  • Penn Center Plaza Transportation Gateway Application ID 8333219 Exhibit 1: Project Description
    MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION FUND APPLICATION Center City District: Penn Center Plaza Transportation Gateway Application ID 8333219 Exhibit 1: Project Description The Center City District (CCD), a private-sector sponsored business improvement district, authorized under the Commonwealth’s Municipality Authorities Act, seeks to improve the open area and entrances to public transit between the two original Penn Center buildings, bounded by Market Street and JFK Boulevard and 15th and 16th Streets. In 2014, the CCD completed the transformation of Dilworth Park into a first class gateway to transit and a welcoming, sustainably designed civic commons in the heart of Philadelphia. In 2018, the City of Philadelphia completed the renovations of LOVE Park, between 15th and 16th Street, JFK Boulevard and Arch Street. The adjacent Penn Center open space should be a vibrant pedestrian link between the office district and City Hall, a prominent gateway to transit and an attractive setting for businesses seeking to capitalize on direct connections to the regional rail and subway system. However, it is neither well designed nor well managed. While it is perceived and used as public space, its divided ownership between the two adjacent Penn Center buildings and SEPTA has long hampered efforts for a coordinated improvement plan. The property lines runs east/west through the middle of the plaza with Two Penn Center owning the northern half, 1515 Market owning the southern half and neither party willing to make improvements without their neighbor making similar improvements. Since it opened in the early 1960s, Penn Center plaza has never lived up to its full potential. The site was created during urban renewal with the demolition of the above ground, Broad Street Station and the elevated train tracks that ran west to 30th Street.

  • Nahla Capital
    PHILADELPHIA, PA—New York-based real estate private equity firm Nahla Capital, in a joint venture with the merchant banking division of Goldman Sachs, is acquiring 2000 Market Streetin Philadelphia, PA from Gemini Rosemont Realty for $126.4 million. 2000 Market Street is a 29-story, 665,000-square-foot class A office and retail building located in Philadelphia’s vibrant Market Street West neighborhood. The transaction adds to Nahla Capital’s growing portfolio of properties in strong urban markets throughout the United States. 2000 Market Street is the firm’s first investment in the Philadelphia market. “2000 Market Street represents the best class of office space available in Philadelphia’s thriving Market Street West neighborhood and illustrates Nahla Capital’s commitment to expanding in major urban markets throughout the United States,” says Genghis Hadi, managing principal of Nahla Capital. “Philadelphia has become a true destination in recent years and we couldn’t be more excited about becoming a part of this flourishing city through this acquisition.” Carl F. Schwartz, Susan L. Saslow, and Michal Baum of Hunton Andrews Kurth advised Nahla Capital in the acquisition. Sullivan & Cromwell represented Goldman Sachs. 2000 Market Street is ideally situated within Philadelphia’s city center as the pace of development accelerates west toward University City. New ownership plans to upgrade building infrastructure and improve the overall tenant experience at the property. The asset is more than 90% occupied with long term stable tenants. Built in 1972, the building is near major transportation hubs including Amtrak’s 30th Street Station and Suburban Station. It is also walking distance to University City, Philadelphia’s culturally diverse academic neighborhood that encompasses some of the city’s best universities, including the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University.
