With a tinge of the excess that comes from perspective 100 miles away, Marci Alboher Nusbaum writes, in the business section of the New York Times:
Long derided as a stopping place between Washington and New York, Philadelphia is coming into it own. Center City, the heart of downtown, percolates. A restaurant renaissance has put Philadelphia on the food map, and a crop of new luxury hotels and the opening in December of the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts hs added to the city's allure. [...] Other neighborhoods are reinventing themselves. Even [!] West Philadelphia, a once blighted part of the town and home to the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University, has become a business destination, sporting trendy restaurants and a top-tier hotel.
