Unless you live nearby as we once did, we don't know why you'd ever find yourself on the 700 block of Latona Street. But let's just say, for fun, that you stumbled upon this block after a cheesesteak at Pat's at some point in the last couple decades. If that

7th Street, Dauphin Street, and Germantown Avenue all intersect at a point, creating a triangular property to the south which is currently sitting mostly vacant. Historically, a rooming house called the Washington Hotel stood here, operating until the 1970s, when it was torn down. There are some industrial buildings still standing

We confess, we never really paid attention to the home at the southeast corner of 3rd & Walnut. Even though this corner is in historic Society Hill and sits mere blocks from Independence Hall, the home at this address was somehow only built in 1999 on a property that had

We've always been a little confounded by the property at 342 W. Girard Ave., which you might know as the home of Trios Pizza. This parcel is quite large, covering over 8,000 sqft, but the building on the property covers only about half of the land, with the rest used

2100 Lombard St. is a very desirable property, located on the edge of Fitler Square and just a few short blocks away from the heart of Center City. And yet, for whatever reason, this property has been building free since at least the 1940s and has been used at a

Student housing will seemingly continue its inexorable march up into Mantua, as plans are coming down the pike for the redevelopment of a large site on the 3300 block of Fairmount Avenue. We can't say it's altogether shocking that such a project would be forthcoming, given the amount of new

A couple weeks ago, the Philadelphia real estate and sports worlds were both abuzz as we learned that the owners of the 76ers were one of the groups vying for the privilege of redeveloping the sites on either side of Penn's Landing in a project that would relocate the team to

The Aretz family moved to N. 4th Street in 1995, at a time that Northern Liberties looked rather different than it does today. The Piazza was still years away. 700 Club and Standard Tap hadn't yet opened their doors, and the first show at the Fire wouldn't happen for four more years.

A few days back, we covered some of the ongoing projects happening in Roseville, AKA the area northwest of Penn's campus that's seen an explosion in new construction over the last several years. Today we have a few more projects to bring to your attention, starting with a giant development on

Given its prominent Bella Vista locale, you wouldn't necessarily expect a whole lot of change on the 700 block of Carpenter Street. Despite experiencing a few huge projects in recent years, this neighborhood is incredibly well established and we simply don't see that many development opportunities around here. Sure, maybe
