Adam Robinson will lead CCD’s team focused on expanding non-assessment revenue by forging strategic alliances with public and private sector stakeholders.

Seasonal transitions are underway across CCD managed parks, including the return of park fountains, refreshed landscaping and the Rothman Orthopaedics Roller Rink.

Following a successful launch in 2024, CCD is pleased to announce that Open Streets: West Walnut will return for each Sunday in April.

Greater Center City Philadelphia leads city in housing growth, with residential development reaching a 5-year high in 2024, according to new CCD research.

The just-released 2025 Center City Real Estate Development Report provides images and key details for these projects, which span from Girard Avenue to Tasker Street, river to river.
