The Plaza at PPL Center is the redevelopment of a long vacant site in the City of Allentown, now the anchor of the business district and the first major downtown development in 10 years. Designated as a Keystone Opportunity Zone, the Plaza at PPL Center is a major investment in one of the state's struggling cities and is already stimulating growth in that community.

The new 250,000 square foot building includes Class A office and retail space and a landscaped plaza for public gatherings that serves to unify PPL's historic 1928 office tower and landmark with this new high performance structure. Once the site of the former Hess Brothers Department Store, a mainstay shopping destination until its closing in 1995, the location is once again a center of activity for the community.
