A reader tipped us off that St. Andrew Ukrainian Catholic Church at 425-29 Pine St. is on the market. Currently listed for $2M, this property was purchased about five years ago for $1.5M by a private investor who, for whatever reason, was unsuccessful redeveloping the property, and is now trying

Do you enjoy beer? How bout music?  Do you want to invest in your community? If you answered 'yes' to those questions, then Bloktoberfest is just what the doctor ordered.

In its previous two incarnations, Bloktoberfest took place in cramped quarters, on the 2000 block of Christian St., but this year,

1401-03 E Moyamensing Ave. was most recently the address of The Witch, an American bistro, which lasted for a couple of years before closing a few months ago. The 1800 sqft. property has been on the market for about five months and is currently listed for $399K.

We were heading north on 13th St. the other day and this construction site at 13th and Kater Sts. caught our eye. We shouldn't have been surprised- there's a ton of development activity in the immediate area, with a few new construction sites popping up recently. In recent weeks, we've

Have you ever driven on the beginning of Passyunk Ave., the 600 block that runs between South and Bainbridge Sts.? You probably haven't, and you're not alone.

Way back in 2009, word came out that Bright Hope Baptist Church and the Goldenberg Group were partnering to redevelop the 4.6 acre former Wanamaker Middle School at 11th and Cecil B. Moore Ave. with the goal of creating about one-thousand housing units for Temple students, a neighborhood charter school,

Last week, we saw a sign in the storefront at 244 South St. announcing a new business on the way.

We're usually pretty good with digging around and finding out information about new residential and commercial development, but we're coming up empty on this one. This is pretty surprising, because we'd

We were gliding down South Broad St. today, with thoughts of another parade in our heads (or at least a win tonight, please God), when we were stopped dead in our tracks by an orange Liquor License application in the window at 1131 S. Broad St.

For years, 1300 South St. served as a spot for getting inked. South Street Tattoo opened its doors here in 1987, and shuttered them sometime in the past few years, closing for good after switching tattooed hands. A 1997 City Paper article quotes the shop's owner, Sonny Tufts, as giving

We noticed some earth being moved on the 800 block of North American St., and were feeling pretty excited to see progress on an unusual block in Northern Liberties. On the northern end of the block, sits a vacant, deteriorating remnant of the Ortlieb's Brewery.

In the middle of the block,
