After our lower Fishtown check-in following Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 of our development journey, we make our way to the Delaware River Waterfront, where several projects are well underway in this rapidly changing area. After few projects over the last couple of decades, there is development everywhere

After stopping by the massive Piazza Alta site to continue our charge of development site visits, let's explore the very southeastern corner of Fishtown. Here's that handy-dandy map again, to get a rough idea of what we're talking about.South of Girard Ave. can sometimes get lost in the shuffle, but

Standing at the corner of 24th & Walnut for 107 years, the bridge-facing building at 200 S. 24th St. often goes unnoticed, compared to its taller and more prominent neighbors. While looking fairly ordinary at first glance, this little riverfront building has many stories to tell.

Last week, we covered the first leg of our six-part series chronicling some of the construction taking place in the northeast quadrant of Greater Center City.

Earlier this week, we made an unplanned trek across several adjacent neighborhoods, where a boatload of development is taking place.

Boy oh boy, has Washington Avenue undergone some changes over the last few years. With projects popping up all over the place and the newly paved (and partially safer) roads, the industrial-heavy past is slowly making a sharp turn toward a mixed-use future. One place where this change is very

Over the weekend, a zoning permit for the complete demolition of the structure at 210-12 N. 12th St. in Chinatown caught our attention. When we first saw this notice, we didn't think too much of the property at the NW corner of 12th & Spring, where a handsome but neglected
