Dilworth Plaza Groundbreaking
Dilworth Plaza Groundbreaking Jan. 30th at 9:30 am
Finally, the official Dilworth Plaza groundbreaking has taken place. The event went down today at 1515 Market Street, 9th Floor at 9:30 a.m.
“Official groundbreaking for the $50 million transformation of Dilworth Plaza, west of City Hall, a project that will create more than 900 construction jobs with $22 million in wages over the 27 months of the project, which will be completed in early 2014. The new Plaza will have a large lawn, tree groves, seating for 400, a programmable fountain and a café. During winter, a portable ice rink will cover the fountain area. The concourse beneath Dilworth Plaza will be dramatically improved as a new transit gateway, providing entrances to Broad Street and Market Street subways and the trolley lines. New elevators will make the transit platforms accessible for the first time and a unique work of public art will highlight the movement of trains below the Plaza.”
Hopefully this groundbreaking will mark an end to the violence and protesting that has become commonplace near City Hall and instead the area will become a point of pride for Center City, Philadelphia.
