Philadelphia Holocaust Memorial

There seems to be two different plans for the Holocaust memorial















Moshe Safdie to design Human Rights Center in Philadelphia
Mayor Nutter Instrumental in Securing Lease for Monument Property on Ben Franklin Parkway

The plaza, an open space off the Parkway, will accommodate those who gather on Yom Hashoah, the annual Holocaust memorial day of remembrance, and tour groups. It will also provide a venue for class lectures and a choice vantage point for viewing the Monument to the Six Million Jewish Martyrs.

Connect the Schuylkill River Banks Trail to South Street, Penn Park, The Gray's Ferry Crescent Trail and eventually Bartram's Garden.

Some info on retail in Center City.

Coming to Walnut Street is a 3 floor Ulta and a deal being made on a Nordstrom. Also there is mention of the retail complex at 15th and Walnut that will house a Cheesecake Factory.

Center City shopping is starting to recover from the economic slump

The Atlantic building conversion will included 7 floors of retail aimed at big box retailers... is this possibly where the Nordstrom will go? Plans also call for 200 apartments.
