This summer, CCD is launching Let’s Do Lunch, an exciting new dining initiative to support the vibrant lunchtime scene in Center City. Starting June 24 and continuing every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday through August 14, groups of two or more can take advantage of special two-course lunch deals at participating restaurants.

The CPDC is pleased to announce the appointment of four distinguished real estate and business leaders to its Board of Directors’ Executive Committee. These new members bring exceptional expertise to help advance CPDC's mission of promoting economic growth and development in Center City Philadelphia.

CCD plans to expand its popular street closure program for the first time this summer with the launch of Open Streets: Midtown Village. On four consecutive Sundays this June.

Beginning Wednesday, June 4 and continuing every Wednesday through August 27, dozens of bars and restaurants will take part in Philadelphia’s favorite happy hour tradition by offering exclusive discounts found only in Center City.

Philadelphia's post-pandemic recovery is at a critical juncture. Center City has recaptured 90% of foot traffic, and a residential population exceeding 2019 levels. But now, that progress is threatened by sweeping and drastic service cuts coupled with significant fare increases to balance SEPTA’s budget in the absence of additional state funding.
