The four story brownstone mansion at 2010 Walnut St. was built in 1860 and was originally owned by the  Wilkinson Sword Blade family. In recent decades, Eberhardt's Antiques operated out of the first floor, and images from Google indicate that many of the home's original interior details remain intact. At least on the

We've visited the area around 42nd & Chester a disproportionate number of times over the years, mostly because of a building collapse a few years ago and the construction of a new building near Clark Park that does a remarkable job fitting in with the older homes in the neighborhood.

It looks like North Broad Street will soon get another residential tower. We saw Morgan Hall arrive on the scene in 2013, and the 27-story building at Cecil B. Moore Ave. now houses hundreds of Temple undergrads. While the Divine Lorraine isn't a new building, its renovation is nearing completion

Thanks to our unquenchable thirst for Rival Bros. coffee, we often find ourselves walking on the 2300 block of Naudain Street on our way over to the cafe. This walk has featured non-stop construction on the south side of this block for nearly two years which in a vacuum is

A reader tipped us off the other day about some impending construction on the 1200 block of N. 25th St. and we couldn't shake the feeling we'd visited the block before. But we couldn't quite figure out when or why. Looking at the Google Street View of the block from

The long journey for 1843 E. Passyunk Ave. could finally be approaching a satisfying conclusion. We first wrote about this property about half a decade ago, but it came to our attention many years before. The building was home to King of Jeans for many years, and the amazing sign caught our

When we recommended that you attend the Northern Liberties Neighbors Association 40th anniversary celebration a couple weeks back, it wasn't simply because of the significance of the milestone for this organization that's done so much for its community. The free food and booze, while certainly a draw, were also not

We've visited the 1700 block of N. Howard St. a couple times before, and today, for our latest visit, we bring news of the largest project we've seen on the block to date. Previously, we've covered the First Steel project from Postgreen, a two-home project at the corner of Howard

As Fishtown and East Kensington are doing real estate backflips, we're increasingly seeing development and opportunity past Lehigh Avenue, literally on the other side of the tracks. For example, earlier this year, we told you about a plan for eight homes to replace a warehouse on the 2800 block of Belgrade

Three new triplexes are under construction (and pretty far along, actually) on the 1900 block of Ingersoll Street. For those that don't know from this street, it runs east-west between Thompson and Master Streets, disappearing and reappearing intermittently on the west side of Broad Street.
