FUTURE OPPORTUNITY AND USAGE30th STREET STATION

12

• Up to 83,000 SF of vacant/underutilized space is available for expansion

• Opportunities to increase the existing commercial footprint

• Potential for Amtrak to reduce office footprint at the station or potentially relocate

Unmet Potential:

Growth of daily rail ridership (Amtrak, SEPTA Regional Rail, and NJ TRANSIT) from 38,000 to upwards of 90,000

Daily foot traffic in and around the Station totals just over 100,000
