The DP had yet another take... including this truly
memorable paragraph:
"In 2009, developers announced they planned to build the
hotel at 40th and Pine streets. They changed locations
after nearby residents expressed concerns that the
building would harm the neighborhood’s identity. The
project site was then moved to Walnut Street to fit in
better with the road’s commercial aesthetic."
I'm afraid that the Penn people really believe this
the penn people and the hotel developer believe the hotel is
in the interests of penn.
it appears some residential buildings on walnut and 41st are
being torn down from the road's "commercial aesthetic" to
accommodate this hotel/office project.
some background about the penn tower hotel, part of the penn
health system and owned by penn health system:
