2020 Vision for North Broad: Create ‘Health Zone' Around Temple Health

A group focused on rejuvenating a 4-mile stretch of Broad Street says city and community leaders should entice health-related businesses to the area around Temple University Health System, and increase green space and improve attractiveness along the North Philly artery over the next five years.

The three goals are part of the 2020 Vision plan released by nonprofit, North Broad Renaissance, which is dedicated to connecting community members with political and other local leaders in an effort to revitalize the economy and quality of life along Philadelphia's North Broad corridor.
