As Philadelphia continues to diversify its office district, retain start-up firms and as we seek to develop a major destination retail and entertainment district on East Market Street, what can we learn from New York City? Come hear two dynamic leaders who head organizations similar to the Center City District speak about how they are addressing these challenges and opportunities in their city.
Elizabeth Berger,
President of the Alliance for Downtown New York
Ms. Berger will focus on efforts to continue to attract and retain office tenants to the Wall Street and World Trade Center area while continuing to diversify land-use through residential and retail development.
Tim Tompkins, President of the Times Square Alliance
Mr. Tompkins will focus on their efforts to attract and retain both office and entertainment uses to Times Square, while creating new pedestrian spaces and plazas in the midst of Broadway.
Business casual attire required. No denim.
Space is limited. RSVP no later than Wednesday, December 5, to Carol Raffa, craffa@centercityphila.org or 215.440.5500.
