This mission is as necessary today as ever, as our community grapples with the after-effects of an economic downturn that caused returns to the nest, compromised incomes, continuous layoffs, and elusive home ownership. Equitable access for African Americans in particular remains an uphill climb for even the most educated and trained. As a vital and well-connected bridge to possibility, the ULP is a part of the 21st century transformation in which the entire Greater Philadelphia region is engaged. As such it is our responsibility to ensure that new opportunities are abound for the varying segments of our broader community. ULP is about the business of empowerment and we are joined in these effort by our donors, corporate partners, and stakeholders all of whom recognize the power of diversity in the global economy. If the region is to realize its vision of becoming truly world class, then the Urban League of Philadelphia is prepared to be play its role in attaining that vision. ADVOCACY AND POLICY The challenges faced by our constituents in the 21st century differ in many ways from those we battled at our founding in 1917; “It is our responsibility to however, generations of oppression, exclusion and marginalization ensure that new opportunities continue to have an adverse impact on our community, even are abound for the varying with substantial gains.

Those looking to dip their toes back into travel after a long hiatus can explore the brand-new Faith and Liberty Discovery Center, making its debut on Independence Mall in May; check out the Philadelphia Museum of Art’s new galleries, part of a Frank Gehry-designed interior expansion and renovation; and take a special twilight tour of the haunting Eastern State Penitentiary, also hosting its first-ever beer garden in the baseball diamond. When it’s time to rest their tired feet after days spent touring the town, visitors can do so at the city’s first W Hotel or at the Guild House Hotel, a boutique property in a National Historic Landmark building, both opening in spring. Another great option for spending a night or two is the ever-popular Visit Philly Overnight Hotel Package, which includes hotel parking and buy-one-get-one-free tickets for 19 attractions, many of which are hosting special exhibits this spring (see below). It’s available at 40 hotels and bookable at visitphilly.com/overnight.

  • 2019 Report to the Community 2019 Report to the Community
    2019 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY 2019 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY King of Prussia District: A Catalyst for Economic Development and Job Growth Business improvement districts, such as King of Prussia District, are organizations created to help solve a variety of challenges facing a community. The challenge during the time of our creation was primarily slow growth in Upper Merion Township and stagnant property values. King of Prussia had lost much of its caché as the premier office location, as many other commercial centers in the Philadelphia region accelerated through the first decade of the new century. Creating a business improvement district in a suburban location is rare, but many commercial property owners, as well as the Township, believed that it was the best way to tackle the challenges at hand. In May 2010, King of Prussia District was created and a boundary was selected for participating properties. Our founders developed a specific program plan and a funding formula to provide the necessary revenue. The program plan included goals and objectives in five program areas: Marketing & Communications, Physical Improvements, Transportation, Land Use & Zoning and Tax Policy. Eric C. Davies Since that time, our Board, committees and staff have worked hard to put King Board Chair of Prussia back on the map, accelerate economic development and job growth and increase property values. We believe that the organization’s work has yielded significant positive impacts during our first eight years. This year’s Annual Report to the Community highlights, when possible, the changes that have occurred since our creation. We showcase statistics related to retail, commercial office and industrial development, housing starts, job growth, Eric T.
