I'm not the reporter on the project, but from what I've heard in the media, it sounds that renters are supposedly the biggest losers -- some properties are seeing thousands of dollars in tax increases, which they'll most assuredly pass onto renters in a tax hike (my opinion, also that of some other Philadelphians).

assuredly why? is rental pricing competition purely cost-driven?
Since rental units don't have much marginal cost, that seems unlikely -- They are capital investments, financed by mortgages or owned outright.
