History
Philadelphia's commercial core has occupied roughly the same ground since William Penn surveyed his grid plan for the city in 1682, centering civic life on a broad public square — Penn Square — that became the site of City Hall a century later. The blocks immediately surrounding City Hall evolved through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries into the city's primary financial and corporate district, and it was on one of those blocks, two blocks north of City Hall, that Comcast chose in the 2000s to make its most assertive statement about Philadelphia's future.
The Comcast Technology Center, the second of two Comcast towers on the same block, was designed by Norman Foster's practice — the architect of the Gherkin in London, the Reichstag dome in Berlin, and the Apple Park campus in Cupertino. At 1,121 feet, Foster's tower became the tallest building in Pennsylvania when it opened in 2018, surpassing the Comcast Center next door by more than 300 feet. The tower is clad in a continuous glass curtain wall, giving the Philadelphia skyline a new and instantly recognizable profile visible from New Jersey across the Delaware River.
Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia at Comcast Center occupies the top twelve floors, from the 49th through the 60th, opening in 2019 as the replacement for the original Four Seasons Philadelphia on Logan Square — a property that had operated from 1983 to 2015 before closing. The new property reset the bar for the city: at these altitudes, every room has an unobstructed view across southeastern Pennsylvania that no other hotel in the state can match. Jean-Georges Vongerichten — the Alsatian chef who has done more than any individual to define New York's fine-dining culture over the past three decades — brought his flagship Jean-Georges Philadelphia to the 60th floor, joined on lower floors by James Beard Award-winning chef Greg Vernick's Vernick Fish. Both restaurants have received consistent critical recognition since opening. The property earned two Michelin Keys in 2025.
Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia crowns the Comcast Technology Center at 1 North 19th Street, a 1,121-foot Foster + Partners supertall completed in 2019 as the city's tallest building.
