With so many projects and events taking root in the region, Greater Philadelphia is set to transform in 2015.

Pope Francis is coming, along with a flock of millennials. Camden is growing, and so is the new Comcast tower in Center City. By 2016, we’ll have a brand new mayor and a popular bike share system.

These events could have a considerable impact on the region, inspiring one local expert to call 2015 “a milestone year” for Philadelphia.

“In the past 10 or 15 years, we’ve seen this shift from that less-than-positive way of thinking to a much more optimistic, much more can-do kind of spirit that is infectious and contagious and attractive,” said Matt Cabrey, executive director of Select Greater Philadelphia. “We’ve done a good job in creating awareness about the benefits of living and working and establishing a business and growing a business and raising a family in the region. We need to continue that.”
