1324 Mifflin St., has some unique history and a highly unusual shape, but you wouldn't know it by simply walking past the property. There’s a three story building on Mifflin Street, but most of the first floor of the building functions as a driveway that leads to a large warehouse that fills all

Philadelphia is an amazing historic city with a host of worthy tourist destinations. Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell are perhaps the most obvious, with our numerous museums offering more culture than you can shake a stick at. Like looking at cool stuff? Check out the Magic Gardens or go

Remember last week, when we told you about the upcoming renovation of a former carpet mill on the 100 block of W. Huntingdon St. into apartments? That story provided another example (in a rapidly growing list of examples) of the way that increased development activity in South Kensington and East

A project has been brewing at the southeast corner of 6th & Brown for years, and now it appears something is finally going to happen. In case you aren't familiar with this property, it's a one-story building that looks like it was originally built for industrial purposes, but it's been

A reader recently reached out to us, having spied a zoning notice posted on an old industrial building on the Norris Square / Fairhill border. Curious, we made the hike up to 178 W. Huntingdon St. to see what all the fuss was about. We found very little fuss at

One could credibly make the argument that the 800 block of N. 3rd St. is the epicenter of 3rd Street development in

We always wondered about the parking garage at 725 S. Broad St. because of a curious sign posted to its front. The sign read 'Peace Mission Democratic Cooperative Garage,' basically begging for some additional context. For example, what makes a garage democratic and cooperative? Had we bothered to perform a simple

Center City is set to lose another low rise parking garage, and this time it's the unexciting two-story structure at 123 S. 12th St. that's on the outs. This isn't the first time we're bringing this building to your attention though - remember about two and a half years ago,

We were traveling around West Philadelphia the other day and stumbled upon a property that felt as if it had looked quite different not so long ago. Looking at the Google Maps Time Machine, we confirmed our suspicion that indeed, 525 N. 41st St. has changed considerably of late. For decades,

Philadelphia's newest vegan cafe/bakery opened recently in a building that had previously sat empty and blighted for a number of years. Perhaps you remember, we told you about a year and a half ago that Batter & Crumbs Cafe would be opening at 1401 Reed St., marking the end of
