At the start of 2020, before the pandemic upended daily life and shook every aspect of the city’s economy, Philadelphia was in its 11th straight year of growth. Now, as vaccination rates rise and vitality is steadily returning to the downtown and neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia, the CCD and CPDC are releasing a pair of reports which look at the past year’s challenges and track multiple indicators of recovery.
Center City District is celebrating summer in the city with an All-American BBQ at Dilworth Park, June 21-25, with games, grilling, live music and hot DJs.
This edition of the CCD and CPDC quarterly newsletter includes: CCD President, Paul R. Levy's cover essay making the case for returning to work; CCD 2021 Budget Details; profiles of our essential on-street workers, Summer Park Events, New communications campaigns and CCD/CPDC Reports; How you can support downtown’s recovery.
With Black Friday and Small Business Saturday right around the corner, the Center City District has created a list of what’s happening in the diverse shopping districts downtown.
This report is meant to start the conversation about traffic congestion, focusing on why it occurs, how it is (or isn’t) currently being managed, and what Philadelphia can do differently to improve conditions.
On December 18, 2018, CPDC hosted a panel discussion with business leaders and asked them to highlight both the opportunities for more dynamic job growth in 2019 and the challenges and hurdles that Philadelphia needs to overcome to capitalize on these opportunities.
