flag Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker launched the "Reimagining Market East Initiative" on November 7, 2025, unveiling plans to revitalize the area east of City Hall into a vibrant civic and commercial hub. flag The effort includes $16 million in walkability and safety upgrades, $13 million for the former Greyhound Terminal redevelopment, and nearly $1 million in lighting improvements. flag A temporary intercity bus terminal will open on Filbert Street as an interim measure, with Comcast supporting infrastructure efforts. flag A year-long planning process led by a commission will guide long-term development, though neighborhood advocates express concern over premature demolitions and lack of transparency, fearing displacement and broken trust from past projects.
