Brandywine Realty Trust has signed a lease with the Garces Restaurant Group at its Cira Centre office tower adjacent to Amtrak’s 30th Street Station in Philadelphia. Chef Jose Garces will open his yet-to-be-named “farm-to-table” concept in early spring of 2010. The Cira Centre location will be Garces’ sixth restaurant in Philadelphia and will focus on lunch, dinner, and a full-service cocktail bar. “We are very excited about bringing a high quality restaurant to the tenants of the building and the larger community of University City,” said Chef Garces. Cira Centre re-established the architectural standard in the City when it opened in 2005 with its highly-dynamic Cesar Peli design. The building initiated a multi-phased redevelopment of the area by Brandywine which in August will see the completed conversion of the U.S. Post Office Building into a fully leased and 100% occupied 862,692 square foot LEED-Certified office building.
