WATERFRONT (with informative document)

I am now a self proclaimed advocate of WRT and the Center City District’s waterfront vision. With all of the horrendously awful ideas that have crashed and burned over the last 10 or 15 years, the conception of a waterfront recreation area, in the style of Schuylkill River Park or even Kelly Drive is like some whimsical hallucination. But there’s the offhand chance that it could really happen. The plan is cheap, (13 million for 6 miles of parks, trails, construction and restorations) it leaves room for commercial and residential development and will go a long way towards establishing a genuine neighborhood along the Delaware River. In other words, it makes sense.

This plan now stands as an official ‘purpose’ of this blog. I’ll even make a little tag specifying as much. The first thing I’d like everyone to do, is go through this powerpoint style PDF document, outlining the idea. It’s a big file, but well worth the download.
