Well, it's funny that I pictured the Banks family before I went there because they named me Barlton and threatened to “put me on the set” so they could have someone in corporate America. Mind you I was working at Toys R Us at the time.

Yup.
The reality is a lot of these legacy schools were broke as fukk back in the day and simply couldn’t afford the land. Look at old pics of these schools when they were the “business” in the area and the shyt is completely empty.
Then the area gets developed by other entities and they can’t do shyt about it except get their weight up and try to buy up the land — which ain’t cheap. If an Ivy wanted my land to build on I’m fleecing them so their endowment feels it in the gut.
These same schools had no issue owning slaves and leveraging those very slaves so they could stay afloat. Columbia and Harvard are BOTH guilt of this. Like many things in this country they wouldn’t be shyt without their “helpers”

That's essentially what Upenn (and Drexel) have done.
West Philly is all but gone.
Upenn has bought up so much that it's downright unrecognizable.
