set in West Philadelphia in the mid-1960s. West Philadelphia was also the home of American Bandstand, the popular dance show that launched the career of host Dick Clark and turned some local high school students into teen idols. The show was produced in Studio B of television station WFIL-TV (Channel 6, now WPVI-TV), located in the station's then-new addition at 4548 Market Street. The building, which still sports a large satellite dish on its roof, is now home to the West Philadelphia Enterprise Center. Proposed developments As of early 2017, large proposed developments in West Philadelphia include the 30th Street Station District and Schuylkill Yards.
