JHS - you’re completely right about Urban Outfitters - founded by Penn grads who still live in the Phila area I believe. Now though, somehow the UPenn area is supporting all sorts of other retail options though… Eastern Mountain Sports, Gap, Limited, etc. I’m not sure exactly when all this stuff was built, but they all seem to do pretty good business. Also, UPenn has one of the largest campus bookstores I’ve ever seen, and it sorta serves as a bit of a hub on campus too during certain points of the year.
