Is the Sky the Limit in Developing the Delaware Waterfront?
New Vision for Waterfront Piers: Jewels on a necklace?
Plan Philly provided another great recap of this past Tuesday’s meeting overviewing the Master Plan for the Redevelopment of the Central Delaware Waterfront. The plan is compared to that of a necklace, where the piers hang from the mainland like jewels from a necklace. A beautiful illustration and image, don’t you think? The ultimate vision is that once the jewels in this necklace are complete, opening the waterfront for public use, private developers will develop and improve areas around these jewels.
Victory is already being claimed. The Philadelphia Live Arts Festival is moving forward with a dining and live entertainment venue across the street from the new Race Street Pier at the site of an old pumping station. Brilliant, I say! The plan seems to be working! And as the domino tips, there are now rumors of other private developers making inquiries about neighboring Pier 9. Sky is the limit!
But before I float away into the nether-sphere, a good question was raised by Commissioner Patrick Eiding, President of the Philadelphia AFL-CIO. What about Jobs? Unless these sites can employ thousands of people, what will sustain the vision long-term?
The answer is in the works. Read Kelly Patrick Gates' informative article to see what is being proposed to create more jobs for Philadelphia.

Waterfront Square
901 N Penn Street
Philadelphia, PA 19123
This is located next to the new SugarHouse Casino site. There is an enormous amount of development planned for this side of the waterfront. Philadelphia is currently developing a piece of land just south of this high rise cluster on The Festival Pier on Deleware Ave and Spring Garden. The Race Street Pier is already a lovely walking park. On your visit to 901 N Front Street please check ot Northern Liberties, specifically the Piazza At Schmidt's marked by the HUGE Flat Screen TV and Liberties Walk in addition to the Race Street Pier.
Pier 3
3 North Columbus Blvd
Philadelphia, PA 19106
Piers 3 and 5 were once thriving ports for all kind of imported food, goods and exotic cargo. Today, to the South is Penn's Landing, famous for the site of the most amazing fireworks, the Moshulu Boat/Restaurant, the Spirit of Philadelphia Cruises, and The Philadelphia Seaport Museum. Across Columbus Boulevard is the Historic District of Old City filled with more galleries per block than any other part of Philadelphia. And let's not forget the shopping and dining and History! We recommend Old City Coffee to get your engines started, a visit to the Fireman's Museum after that, and some window shopping on North 3rd Street before lunch. You will not go hungry with all of the choices available to you (Mexican, Indian, Tapas, etc.) anywhere along Market and Chestnut.
The Residences at Dockside
717 S Columbus Blvd
Philadelphia, PA 19147
Directly across the street from Dockside is Philadelphia's renowned Queen Village, South Street, and all of the fine dining shopping and entertainment you can take in. I highly recommend checking out the Farmer's Market in Head House Square, grabbing lunch at Famous 4th Street Delicatessen (expect to bring back a doggie bag!), and walk it off along South Street while you do some shopping and people watching.

The New Race Street Pier Brings Energy to Philadelphia
Stephanie and I took a lovely walk to the newly opened Race Street Pier this past weekend. Not only does it bring energy, it provides access to the River !
Before this was just a barren wasteland. Now it is a lovely, manicured, landscaped getaway of sorts: a little piece of heaven on Penns Landing where folks can walk out onto to the pier, next to the Ben Franklin bridge, enjoy a water ice, some music and a nice breeze.
It is a great addition to the City of Philadelphia ! Having another destination on the River is a great start of many things to come.
It will be a great summer !
