This project tests the interventions made. We find that modern trolleys can travel time effects of new trolleys on Route 15 using a offer significant travel time savings within the study microsimulation model. We estimate that replacing area (build scenario 2), and even greater travel time trolleys with curbside-lane-running buses (build savings when prioritized in a dedicated right-of-way (as scenario 1) would yield either a travel time penalty, or a in build scenario 3).

A ferry terminal and connections to the city’s transit system will make this “sixth square” a truly civic space. Movement Systems The central Delaware riverfront is host to a tangle of infrastructure that refl ects centuries of development and large-scale projects. I-95 cuts a wide swath through the entire central Delaware, and in most cases it separates residential communities from the river. Sewer outfalls reach the river every few blocks, running directly under the I-95 viaduct where it depresses in Center City and under city streets throughout the project area. Remnants of the city’s great railroad infrastructure along Delaware Avenue and Columbus Boulevard include remainder rail lines and rights-of-way. The scale of this infrastructure presents great challenges to the city, but it also presents opportunities to enhance the riverfront in the near term and to set up decision-making that could be transformative for the city in the future. Movement Systems 77 The central Delaware riverfront is generally dominated by automobiles Purpose and is difficult to traverse on foot and bike. This lack of balance is This civic vision offers Philadelphia the opportunity to improve caused by land-use regulations that do not encourage urban forms of movement systems along the central Delaware riverfront by increasing development, the tangle of I-95/676 and Delaware Avenue/Columbus opportunities for public access to the riverfront and shaping urban Boulevard serving as a high-volume arterial highway.

  • Organizations & Departments with Oversight
    A Civic Vision for the Central Delaware 2 PennPraxis WRT William Penn Foundation F O R E W O R D The William Penn Foundation, founded in 1945 by Otto and Phoebe Haas, is dedicated to improving the quality of life in the Greater Philadelphia region. We seek to build on the region’s assets and enhance the economic competitiveness of Greater Philadelphia. We have long believed that the Delaware River is one of our region’s most significant assets. For more than a decade, the Foundation has sought to promote the historically industrialized Delaware Riverfront as a both a natural and community resource. In recent years the riverfront has experienced tremendous redevelopment pressure. However, due to the absence of an effective master plan and weak land use controls, most of this development has occurred in an ad-hoc and uncoordinated manner, raising concerns that the city would fail to fully maximize the waterfront’s economic and community development benefits and potential to deliver important new public access and amenities. In response to these concerns, the Foundation launched the central Delaware riverfront planning process to provide needed planning resources for the waterfront. We also sought a new model for large-scale, open, transparent civic visioning and planning that we hope will be replicable elsewhere in Philadelphia and will set a new standard for public access and participation in the city’s development decisions. Although Philadelphia has come late to the waterfront development game, our tardiness gives us one important advantage – we can learn from the experiences of many other cities.

  • 527-37 W GIRARD AVE Name of Resource: North Sixth Street
    ADDRESS: 527-37 W GIRARD AVE Name of Resource: North Sixth Street Farmers Market House and Hall Proposed Action: Designation Property Owner: Franklin Berger Nominator: Oscar Beisert, Keeping Society of Philadelphia Staff Contact: Laura DiPasquale, [email protected], 215-686-7660 OVERVIEW: This nomination proposes to designate the property at 527-37 W Girard Avenue as historic and list it on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places. The nomination contends that the former North Sixth Street Farmers’ Market House and Hall, which is composed of several interconnecting masses constructed between 1886 and 1887, is significant under Criteria for Designation A, E, and J. Under Criterion A, the nomination argues that the property represents the development of Philadelphia in the second half of the nineteenth century as the city transitioned from the use of outdoor, public food markets to privately-owned, multi-purpose, indoor markets and halls. Under Criterion J, the nomination asserts that the mixed-use building played an important role in the cultural, social, and economic lives of the local and predominantly German- American community. The nomination also argues that the building is significant as the work of architects Hazelhurt & Huckel, satisfying Criterion E. The nomination places the period of significance between the date of construction in 1886 and 1908, the year it ceased operations as a farmers’ market, but notes that the community significance may extend through the 1940s, until which time the building remained in use as a public hall and movie theater. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends that the nomination demonstrates that the property at 527-37 W Girard Avenue satisfies Criteria for Designation A, E, and J.
