Let's separate the apples from the oranges first.
Neither UCD nor PennPraxis has any sort of warrant to weigh in on a
zoning issue, until some neighborhood group asks them for their
assistance. It would be bizarre and stupid for them to do so.
without being asked, ucd got heavily involved with the
zoning question wrt dock street at the firehouse a year ago.
ucd took sides, yet they have remained curiously non-vocal
and non-visible wrt this hotel scheme.
without being asked, penn praxis created what was supposed
to be an ongoing dialog wrt the 40th st development, yet
they have remained curiously non-vocal and non-visible wrt
this hotel scheme.
The hotel proposal is clearly in SHCA's bailiwick, likewise in UCHS's
bailiwick. It looks like there has been some ducking, dodging and
deferring by both those bodies.
yes, glenn detailed this in his reply to you this morning.
I have no idea at this point what the eventual outcome will be. That's
where I grow curious.
I think the apples and oranges have been separated long ago,
and that you're simply unable or unwilling to face the
truth: that our neighbors are not served by the
organizations that claim to serve them, and that these
organizations ultimately serve penn's interests. period.
