Now a good post about Philadelphia.
Aside from it's lackluster sports history, Philadelphia is one of the greatest cities in America.
It's history is written in stone as the birthplace of the United States of America. It was the origin of American Bandstand. And who could forget the classic Philadelphia cheesesteak.
Well, another thing that Philadelphia is known for is it's skyline. Driving along the Schuykill River down the expressway (southbound at City Ave), you see your first glimpse of this majestic skyline. And it keeps getting better. Phillyskyline.com is an excellent resource and website that keeps you up-to-date with all the goings on, and is an amazing photo site.
But there is 2 high profile projects that are coming up for this skyline. First is the American Commerce Center, which will be taller than the Comcast Center, when it is completed in 2012. The one I want to focus on for his post however is Cira Centre South.

This new gem is coming to the city and should be completed by year 2011.
I can't wait til this thing is done. Well done Philly.
