You should certainly chose a framework that allows you to keep sqla: so you
can use all the same model classes that are used in the project that created
the database (... and if you can't share the model classes: that's probably
a hint that the model classes contain application logic that shouldn't be in
the model...)
(Of course the above assumes that sqlalchemy was not just used to create the
db but also is being used in some other way.)
Personally, I have recently started a TurboGears 2 based project and am
quite happy with that framework.
TG is basically Pylons with less boilerplate code you have to write at the
cost of tighter dependencies on some other libraries (Genshi, SQLAlchemy,
Beaker, ...)
But AFAIK they have managed this in a way that you always have the option of
dropping these added components and falling back to standard Pylons (not my
own experience, I've stuck to tg's way of doing things so far.) th mailing
list is quite helpful, too: while the community is not huge, the S/N ratio
on the mailing list is very good.
(Disclaimer: I've not really looked at any Framework in the Python world. I
played around with Axkit and Catalyst ages ago but haven't been involved in
Web development for a long time. So my choice of TG is more or less
random.)

She seems to have suffered a loss of containment on the starboard
