Column- "How to share the prosperity of Center City?"

Published April 23, 2017

Upon the publication of this year's State of Center City report, the Philadelphia Inquirer published a column by CCD President & CEO Paul Levy.

"Last year was a very good year for Philadelphia. But from 2010 to 2015, we still had the slowest growth among the 25 largest American cities. So do we just cross our fingers, stay the course, and hope somehow that we'll leap from the back of the pack?... We know what success looks like. It's time to spread the benefits citywide."

The Center City District (CCD), Central Philadelphia Development Corporation (CPDC) and Center City District Foundation (CCDF) work together to enhance the vitality and competitiveness of Philadelphia's downtown. In 1991, the business leadership organization CPDC created the CCD business improvement district to deliver daily services with the goal of making Center City clean and safe. This helped transform Center City into a vibrant 24-hour downtown, attractive to businesses, residents, students, shoppers and tourists. In addition, the CCD is responsible for the management of Dilworth, Sister Cities, John F. Collins and Cret Parks, four extraordinary public spaces in the heart of Center City. CCDF, the charitable affiliate of the CCD, was launched in 2016 to support the next generation of public space improvements in Center City Philadelphia.
