While the final decision is yet to be made, the developer\u2019s strongest argument is that building a high-density residential and retail complex in the area would trigger further development projects and boot economic growth in the area.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Dubbed Renaissance Plaza and designed by architecture firm Alesker &amp; Dundon, LLC, the complex would feature 1,458 apartment units and more than 90,000 square feet of retail space, a green roof with swimming pools, 7,600 square feet of public open space and green areas available for all city dwellers, not for complex residents exclusively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In other residential real estate news, <em>CBS Philadelphia<\/em> reports that developer Louis Cicalese is seeking approval for a two-tower apartment building complex at Piers 34 and 35. Three women were killed at Pier 34, twelve years ago, when a nightclub built at the end of the pier collapsed into the water. Cicalese\u2019s new project calls for 209 rental units, first-floor retail and lobby amenities and a two-story parking garage on the second floor. According to the source, the planning commission has requested several changes that would enhance the retail experience along Delaware Avenue. A decision is estimated for next month, after the commission has reviewed the revised plans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Rendering of Renaissance Plaza courtesy of\u00a0Alesker &amp; Dundon, LLC via PlanPhilly.com<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Veronica Grecu, Associate Editor The Philadelphia City Planning Commission received a proposal calling for a four-tower residential and retail complex at the former World Trade Center site, according to PlanPhilly.com.
