Abstract

Philadelphia is at an inflection point. For more than half a century, Philadelphia was a city in decline, losing residents and businesses to the suburbs and suffering from a drain in tax revenues as a result. Today, following a widespread trend of urban regeneration in cities worldwide, Philadelphia is finally experiencing much needed economic growth including a rise in population, revitalization of its downtown and surrounding neighborhoods, and expansion of employment and tax revenue.
