Phoenixville has no charm, no class and its number-one destination is the hospital.
I would suggest building a three-story free parking lot in the middle of town and promise office developers a free tax ride for five years. Same promise to riverfront apartment developers. Put all police activity near the intersection. Year three, put something cultural at the waterfront like a stage with outdoor seating. Maybe a smooth jazz fest in conjuction with WJJZ and the new merchants in town to support the new development. Or folk every other Saturday night.
