There’s spot right around Spring Garden on the bike/running path by the river that STINKS.
Anyway no doubt this will take 15 years to get done, but glad to see it happening

Why in the world would you think it take 15 years? The ground is broken, the land is ready and it’s already in progress. Comcast’s tower 1 and 2 combined didn’t take 15 years.

Maybe if it was towers going up but these are only 6 stories and they already have a grocery store tenant. I bet it'll be done next year at latest.

Regarding a grocery store tenant speeding things up, they're certainly taking their time on the development with an Aldi at 22nd and Washington. I can't wait until it's done.

I think there are storm water run-offs that connect to the river there. The smell is probably from the stagnant water between the storms. Pretty common and Probabaly won’t go away unless they flush the system somehow.

That’s the famous Cohocksink Creek:
“The Cohocksink and its marshlands divided the District of Kensington from the city of Philadelphia and its Northern Liberties. The first settlers were Swedish, predating the founding of the colony of Pennsylvania.”

I was wondering if its a creek instead of just a storm water runoff. Thanks!
