  • 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.

    1 BYERA HADLEY TRAVELLING SCHOLARSHIP REPORT – DAVID MCGIRR Byera Hadley Scholarship Report Student: David McGirr - UTS Project Title: Modernising the Modernists Proposal: To investigate and analyse current and recent international examples of the modification and adaptive reuse of Modernist buildings. Abstract As the Modernist Project recedes ever further into history, and a contemporary society moves forward, the once progressive and dynamic Modernist building finds itself in the unusual position of becoming urban artifact. Modernism is the ‘new heritage’, and as such faces a challenge to ensure its future survival and relevance.1 This Modernist heritage has shown itself, particularly in Australia, which has a rich history of Architecture from the Modernist era2, to be especially vulnerable to perceived obsolescence and subsequent demolition. Controversy and publicity surrounding recent projects and proposals such as alterations to The National Gallery of Australia, and UTS Kuringai Campus demonstrate that not only is the issue of modification to Modernist buildings a current and relevant topic, but also a matter which would benefit from an objective evaluation of overseas case studies. Often Modernist buildings do not receive the same amount of public support or Government protection as buildings from the more distant past. Subsequently it is the view of many (from preservationists to the progressives) that, in order to remain in some way extant, Modernist buildings must be true to their inherent ideological tenets. In other words, they need to stay “modern”. Significant modification and adaptive reuse3, is often seen as the most viable means of sustaining a historic building, yet this practice is one which has only recently been applied to Modernist buildings.

    Interview with Robert Heckert 12/28/77 I'm Robert Heckert, a good friend of Walter's, who has asked me to come here to record some impressions and recollections of the city of Philadelphia as I knew it back as far as 50 years ago. I came to the city in 1927 to settle down and was then associated with the Philadelphia Ethical Culture Society. it was not until 1943 that I became a radio commentator on station WIBG at that time. And a little later on with station KYW, where I became fairly well known throughout the Philadelphia area. Walter would like me to characterize if I would some of the early mayors of the city going back to that time. Well, the first one I remember clearly and the first one with whom I had some contact was Mayor Harry Mackey. As everybody knows at that time all Philadelphia mayors were Republicans. And Harry Mackey was a good Republican. A good soldier in the Vare machine organization. I>want to say a good thing about Mayor Mackey. He came into the mayors office in January 1928. It was a good time in the city and in the country, economically speaking, and we were enjoying great prosperity and Philadelphia was no exception to that rule. But in the middle of Mayor Mackey's term the great Depression struck the nation and of course Philadelphia along with it. And I remember very distinctly that there were hundreds, literally many hundreds of unemployed absolutely destitute men who were housed in an old warehouse around 16th and Hamilton streets where they were given simple food and shelter.
