Amtrak
is seeking a developer for a three-quarter acre site near 30th Street Station
that Brandywine Realty Trust previously had in mind as the location of its
so-called Cira II office tower.
Real-estate
services firm Newmark Grubb Knight Frank has been engaged to issue a request
for proposals for the long-term lease and development of the property at the
corner of 30th Street and John F. Kennedy Boulevard, the rail operator said in
a release Tuesday.
In
the past, Brandywine and Amtrak had discussed using the site for a companion
office project to the Radnor-based developer's nearby Cira Centre office tower.
The
parcel has since been absorbed into the 30th Street Station District Plan, a
decades-long proposal for 18 million square feet of
development and acres of open space to be largely built over Amtrak's sprawling
rail yard in the area.
