Historically, there hasn't been much traction beyond regional peering in Philadelphia. Last I knew, 401 North Broad was the only building with a useful confluence of carriers. According to peeringdb.com, S&D still has a colo & switch there, as does 'cross connect solutions'. The S&D site confirms the population (http://www.switchanddata.com/sitelocations.asp?LocationId=27) and that the more enterprise-colo on Market street is still running as well. For your I2/edu connbectivity, MAGPI has the bulk of their connectivity in 401 North Board. Cheers! Joe -- RSUC / GweepNet / Spunk / FnB / Usenix / SAGE
