City leaders weighed in on Philadelphia’s financial woes for the Philadelphia Bar Association on Friday, discussing the lagging development of Center City’s professional sector and the main reasons for its sluggish growth: the onerous city wage tax and the burgeoning bad reputation of the Pennsylvania Convention Center.
