Declaring his full support for PennPraxis' new Delaware waterfront plan, Mayor Nutter pledged yesterday to transform the moribund Penn's Landing Corp. into a more flexible agency that would devote itself to bringing housing, parks and recreation trails to the entire length of Philadelphia's main river.
The agency will be renamed the Delaware Waterfront Corp. to reflect its broader agenda.
