I don't recall if any architectural renderings were posted but here's what I came across today.

Changing Skyline: New Cheesecake Factory at 15th and Walnut: A creamy-rich glass box

The building itself actually looks pretty cool to me.

(re-posting from other thread)

Nice. BCJ is a good local firm (despite the unfortunate Liberty Bell pavilion). Glad to see them doing more work in the city.
They're really good at retail. They did nearly all of the Apple stores, who I believe were their first retail commission, and since have gotten pretty good at this stuff (Ironically, they previously had designed Bill Gates' compound in Seattle).

I notice it's a Midwood Management project. These guys are from NYC but have been doing great things in Philly since their first development on the 1800 block of Walnut in the early '00s. One thing is that they make a point of hiring good (and local) architects.

They also do an excellent breakfast. Other meals not so much.
