Lots of take homes (pun not intended) from this worth-a-read. Leading mine is the almost astonishing increase in property values and the number of properties being bought and sold. The market is reality, and it is that more people are flocking to the university with the economic activity they generate. Put this in the context of development moving up Broad Street from Center City, and down Broad from the north, and the hot growth just to the east over to the river.
