Spotlighting projects that reflect a commitment to innovation, sustainability, and preserving cultural heritage, ArchDaily released “The 25 Most Anticipated Projects of 2025” list, featuring our redevelopment of the 30th Street Station in Philadelphia.
Building on the master plan we developed for the neighborhood in 2016, the renovation—led by a public-private partnership among Amtrak, Plenary Americas, Vantage Group, and Johnson Controls, with Gilbane Building Company and SOM—reimagines the historic station as the centerpiece to a vibrant, transit-centric urban district. When complete, the project will modernize and expand the rail hub’s retail, extend and pedestrianize its outdoor spaces, activate its concourses, and consolidate Amtrak’s engineering headquarters into the floors above. It’s a thoughtful design that seamlessly integrates modern infrastructure with the station’s historic architecture. See ArchDaily’s full list below.
