Foxwoods Casino Philadelphia Created in 1965, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is an interstate, intercounty and intercity agency that provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning to shape a vision for the future growth of the Delaware Valley region. The region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties, as well as the City of Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer counties in New Jersey. DVRPC provides technical assistance and services; conducts high priority studies that respond to the requests and demands of member state and local governments; fosters cooperation among various constituents to forge a consensus on diverse regional issues; determines and meets the needs of the private sector; and practices public outreach efforts to promote two-way communication and public awareness of regional issues and the Commission. Our logo is adapted from the official DVRPC seal, and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole, while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River. The two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. DVRPC is funded by a variety of funding sources including federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Pennsylvania and New Jersey departments of transportation, as well as by DVRPC’s state and local member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for its findings and conclusions, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies.

Eight casinos have been proposed in the region, and licensing decisions are imminent. Affected communities will include the City of Philadelphia, with two of five casino proposals allowed; Bensalem Township and the City of Chester, each with one proposed “racino” (a racetrack with slots); and Limerick Township, with one casino proposed. The study acknowledges that neighboring communities, and indeed neighboring regions, will also be affected by the introduction of gaming. It has been said that gaming is the new Wal-Mart in terms of impacts and neighborhood opposition. The gaming industry has expanded rapidly in the 1990s to include many more local markets, beyond the national draws of Las Vegas and Atlantic City. The Philadelphia region, and all of Pennsylvania, is now faced with planning for the arrival of several gaming facilities in the very near future. The Philadelphia region is unique, however, in the licensing of slots-only parlors, either freestanding, at a racetrack, or resort. Table games are not part of the gaming operations allowed under the state legislation, at least not yet. This makes the challenges to this region more complex, as all other national research on gaming has been focused on facilities with slots and table games. According to the National Gambling Impact Study Commission, 68 percent of U.S. citizens have gambled legally once in the past year. This includes such other games as bingo and the lottery. Thus, given the region’s population of 5.4 million, it is estimated that 3.6 million Delaware Valley residents have gambled legally in the past year. There is a good chance some of these 3.6 million might patronize a greater Philadelphia casino. This report speculates on what changes may occur, and what the region and local municipalities should do to proactively plan for the arrival of casinos. This year-long study, begun in the fall of 2005, examines the casino proposals in depth from a planning perspective. Existing planning regulations in the affected municipalities, including zoning and comprehensive plans, were reviewed. Prior related studies and the required casino impact reports were also examined. The study looks at the compatibility of existing land uses and future development near the proposed casinos, as well as the demographics of the study areas. The proposed architectural and site designs of each casino were also examined. Existing transportation infrastructure, such as local roadways, transit, and multimodal connections were assessed. Existing daily traffic and roadway levels of service data was used to gain an accurate portrait of future transportation challenges. Existing signage regulations were reviewed in light of national best practices research. 1 Impacts of Gaming in Greater Philadelphia The study was guided by a Study Advisory Committee, composed of representatives from the proposed casinos, affected municipalities, the state departments of transportation, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, transit agencies, county planning commissions, the Philadelphia Gaming Advisory Task Force, the transportation management associations (TMAs), and local advocates. Quarterly meetings were held at DVRPC, featuring guest speakers and presentations by DVRPC staff on findings and recommendations. While many groups have been working diligently on gaming issues locally and nationwide, DVRPC’s study provides a unique regional viewpoint and recommendations geared towards the topical areas of transportation, land use, and signage, given the agency’s role in fostering a continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning process for the region. Often times the costs and benefits of gaming are not equally distributed. While there are many issues associated with gaming, including very important social and economic impacts, these topics are beyond the reach of this study. The report bibliography lists some excellent websites that cover these topics. Findings and Recommendations The study found that most of the communities have the proper zoning in place to encourage desirable land uses near the casinos and prohibit unwanted uses. The City of Philadelphia has proposed a new overlay zoning district that will guide new development around the two casinos ultimately licensed. All five of the proposed Philadelphia casinos are on redevelopment sites, and all are close enough to residential neighborhoods that care should be taken to mitigate negative

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.
