We are expecting to find out more in about 1 month,according to reports. The Feds are supposed to help the project,some money has already been secured. I wish I had more info to report. To see the area and the station,scroll up and click on the link to live search maps that AndyB posted.The big red brick building was an old locomotive shop of the Phila.& Reading railroad. The grey building north of that is the Franklin st. station and sheds. This is our project,to have a small museum in it. The big red building has been offered in the past. Now,If you go directly north on live search maps,10-15 city blocks,(follow tracks),you will get to the new(1901-08) RDG Co. shop complex,which is north of Spring street ,to the west bounded by 6th street. This also being looked at for a museum site.The propery is split down the middle owner wise, with the east side belonging to Norfolk southern who will not sell. Believe me, I have tried to talk them into it. Hope this helps.
