You've probably never paid any mind to the 1400 block of Clymer Street, a little street that dead-ends before it even gets to Broad Street. And you can be forgiven for not paying much attention to this block, as it has been historically home to a row of half a

We don't think that anybody would describe the 2400 block of Federal Street as a prime location, as its western end terminates at the 25th Street viaduct. Nevertheless, it's experiencing a major change, with a row of duplexes under construction right at that end of the block. We last checked in

We've somehow found our way to the 1800 block of N. 6th St. a couple times over the years. First, we showed you early construction photos of a combination photo studio and residence at the corner of 6th & Berks for a Temple art professor. Much more recently, we mentioned plans for

We've watched with great interest, over the last few years, as Ridge Avenue in Francisville has experienced a slow rebirth.

The statue was created by sculptor Nathan Rapoport, and sat at the point of the triangle that's created by 17th Street, Arch Street, and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. We don't know what

Wow, have things ever changed at the southwest corner of 3rd & Market. If we turn back the clock a few years or a few decades, Suit Corner was operating out of a double-wide commercial space, selling suits as gaudy as the paint job on the facade. Unfortunately, a fire

Parking surely tightened up in Northern Liberties a few months ago, when the parking lot east of the Piazza and south of the Shops at Schmidt’s closed to the public. At the time, we had no idea what was going on with this property, but we had a couple of theories. We

It was almost two months ago that we last directed your attention to South Square, a residential development with a splash of retail on the 100 block of W. Berks, on the northern end of South Kensington. At the time, we noted that this was one of the more ambitious
