The YWCA is (was?) the ladies' version of the YMCA. Whereas the old YMCA is being redeveloped into Le Meridien, tough, the YWCA sits vacant on Chestnut waiting for its rocket to come.
What I find ironic about this cornerstone is the use of the delta symbol. Why would such a respectable organization as the YWCA attach itself to a symbol so prurient as that? It's a double etendre sitting out in plain sight, for all to see on Chestnut Street.
