On Oct. 12, 2006, Mayor Street signed an executive order that invited Penn Praxis to lead a citizen-driven planning process for the Delaware Waterfront that would be open and transparent and produce a civic vision for development along the river from Allegheny Ave. to Oregon Ave.

Working with the Philadelphia City Planning Commission (PCPC), Penn Praxis organized a planning process that will work with citizens, civic leaders, elected officials and a team of designers to produce this civic vision.

Penn Praxis' effort is aided by the Central Delaware Riverfront Advisory Group, chaired by PCPC Executive Director Janice Woodcock. The Advisory Group meets on the first Monday of every month at 8 a.m. Meetings are open to the public and announced on planphilly.com/events.

In accordance with the executive order, a steering committee was selected by members of the Advisory Group and also meets monthly.

All meetings of the Central Delaware Riverfront Planning Process are open to the public.
