Financial Ramifications of 911....Wall Street West in Pennsylvania???

This is not an ultra-new story, yet I did want to bring it to the attention of ActiveRain Professionals as it could become something that stirs the real estate market here in Pennsylvania.  While I'm not sure of the ramifications of this being implemented, it certainly would bring an increased level of interest to the Pennsylvania Market.  I am providing a link to the story but here is the concept in a nutshell.  After the horrible happenings of 911, there was talk of 'backing up' the financial centers located in NYC as to yield any economic fall out that may spread if another terroistic attack were to befall us.  Essentially, this would help ensure that God forbid anything happen once again, we would have a level of insurance to relieve us of an across the board collapse of our economy.  I think it is a wise move indeed and wonder how this may stir up the real estate market here in Pennsylvania.  A market which has seen extraordinary growth in real estate appreciation here in Eastern Pennsylvania.  Here is the link:

Actually Stefan, it mentions nothing of having Allentown, Pa specifically as the financial capital of the free world.  It does though mention Lehigh, Northampton, Berks, Monroe, Carbon, Pike, Wayne, Luzerne and Lackawanna counties as players in the proposal.

Interesting....I did not know that this was in the plans for PA.  I always was a fan of Randell since his Philly days.   It will help our local economy and increase mortgage sales since we will have an influx of people with the new jobs.
