Nice photo and drawing! What on the left in the picture, looks like some kind of construction?
Thanks! And by the looks of it, it looks like they’re working on JFK Boulevard
I saw that too! What do you think it will be? Another tower revealed?
I hope! But probably an announcement for 3001 and 3025 JFK… possibly tenants or construction
Well construction is pretty good too. I need to see them actually start working on things other than a park and a new facade to know if Brandywine is really serious about this.
They should be looking to break ground on the residential component. They will want to have this moving in order to realize the full tax abatement benefit before the 2021 reductions kick in.
“Brandywine has also completed the construction design documents and is seeking construction permitting for one new tower on JFK Boulevard, and it has completed design development documents for another. Construction is expected to begin this fall on the 500,000-square-foot West tower, which will consist of mainly residential units with office and retail space on the lower floors. The 750,000-square-foot East tower, which will consist of a mix of large corporate offices, retail space on the ground floor and, possibly, laboratories, will be constructed after the completion of the West tower, pending the closing of a large corporate tenant. Brandywine is planning for and is in the early design stage for a new stand-alone research lab building, with this project likely preceding the start of the East tower. The West tower will take approximately 30 months to complete.”

Here is another article on the timeline:
Also, a new rendering has been released for 3151 Market Street!
Sorry, it’s a little blurry.
That’s very weird looking, I like it!! Love these angles
I’ve been meaning to post these new renderings for some time now, but Brandywine released new renderings for the three planned towers, slight redesign on the gray one-wasn’t that supposed to break ground before the end of the year? It obviously won’t happen this week, and then the ground could start freezing up in December. I’m afraid it may have to wait until Springtime now.
Notice they made changes to 3025 JFK… including removing the base arches. I hope the red tower is left untouched
Same, I think the brick looks nice on the ground floor, but the archways were something special. But as long as they are still on the red tower, I’ll be happy
