Gas Station To Relocate For 20th + Arch at 2000 Arch Street In Center City West

By Thomas Koloski

A prewar-style gas station will soon be relocated off the site of the 20th+Arch proposal at 2000 Arch Street in Center City West, where construction could start soon.

The vicinity of the site feels empty, even though skyscrapers stand the site just blocks away.
