The new development is situated just to the south of the Naval Square residential development and a few blocks south of the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s Roberts Center for Pediatric Research, where one glass-clad high-rise was constructed several years ago and three more towers are in various stages of development. The complex is situated right next to the Schuylkill River waterfront, where the river trail is a popular attraction for residents on both sides of the river. The adjacent South Street bridge offers access to University City on the river’s right bank, with the medical district located next to the bridge.
