Back in March, we visited N. 2nd St. just below Cecil B. Moore Avenue, providing updates on a couple of projects on the west side of the block. At 1638 and 1640 N. 2nd St., developers were initially building a pair of mixed-use buildings, but decided to pivot during the construction process.

If you currently park your car at the garage at 2031 Lombard St., you might want to start looking for another garage posthaste. A few months back, we told you that we were hearing whispers that developers had the property under agreement and that the garage would be closing by the end

We were scanning the zoning calendar as we often do, and an address caught our eye for reasons we couldn't quite determine in the moment. Why did 501 W. Norris St. give us pause? It didn't take more than a few seconds of research to connect the dots, as we quickly realized that the

It was almost exactly a month ago that we told you about a plan to spruce up the public pool at 17th & Catharine at the Marian Anderson Rec Center, a project inspired by successful pop-up pools in other neighborhoods. We told you that SOSNA had pledged $6,000 to the cause and that Friends

Recent history has been a little odd for the building at 113-15 Arch St., but developers are now looking to stabilize its future with a major renovation effort. Back in the day, at least part of the property was home to a paint business. By the early 1970s it was in

Front Street's upswing is continuing, as a reader recently tipped us off about plans to redevelop yet another vacant lot on this long dormant corridor. There's a zoning notice posted at 1308-10 N. Front St., a 4,000 sqft parcel that goes all the way back to Hope Street and has been

Far be it from us to tell developers what to do- heaven knows we don't always know the right approach for a given property. But we're starting to feel pretty confident with the feedback that developers shouldn't try to get a variance for a multi-family project in Fishtown without providing

The Lombard Swim Club is a wonderful place, offering sparkling waters, an open bar, and the occasional sighting of the former Mayor/Governor that now talks about football on television. But it has its drawbacks too. It's pricey, costing roughly four grand per summer for a family of four. And that's assuming you

It was roughly two years back that we told you about the Moyer Street Project, a plan to investigate reinvigorating the cruddy 2400 block of Moyer Street, right off of Aramingo Avenue. At the time, the Olde Richmond Civic Association had crafted a survey to ask neighbors what they wanted to see happen

The 1200 block of N. 7th St. is very much on the upswing. We've covered a couple different projects on the west side of this block, with a quartet of homes and a mixed use building appearing at the corner, along with a row of six triplexes just south of the corner. Both
