It's only been like two months since we last checked in on the large mixed-use project at 22nd & Hamilton that was once called as Rodin Square and is now known as Dalian on the Park. This project replaces an unattractive Best Western hotel and is best known as the future

The other day, we found ourselves up around Temple again, eating a delicious lunch at Champ’s Diner and wondering what’s next for the neighborhood. Working off some of those calories, we turned onto 18th Street from Cecil B. Moore Avenue and there we saw a pair of new triplexes under

While ambling through Fishtown on an unseasonably warm day last week, we spied some zoning notices at 1848-50 Tulip St., a vacant corner lot a couple blocks from Memphis Flats. Looking at an old listing and Google Street View from a few years ago, we discovered that there was a

We've been waiting for South Broad Street to take a big step forward for years, but to date, progress has been fairly incremental. Sure, there have been changes, like the reopening of the Broad Street Diner, the reawakening of long-shuttered Boot & Saddle, and the slow-moving construction of the armory apartments.

It's taken about a year and a half, but construction has finally started on the west side of the 1000 block of S. 17th Street, across the street from Carpenter Square. This stretch of land has been vacant for many years, held in limbo because the City owned almost all

The other day, we heard from a reader, bringing a renovation effort at 673 N. 15th St. to our attention. This project apparently stalled out for a time, but construction has now resumed. Plans call for three apartments above an office space, and at least some of the first floor

Last month, we told you about a seven home development planned for the 2300 block of E. Dakota Street. This block, you may recall, is pretty tough to find because the street comes and goes and this particular block doesn't even have enough room for a car to pass. Also,

The saga continues for a little triangular patch of land created by the intersection of Christian Street, 6th Street, and Passyunk Avenue. This property was historically home to a gas station but it's been on a roller coaster ride in recent years. About six years ago, the owner of the

Fishtown has gotten so many new homes in the last several years, and Shackamaxon Street will soon get fourteen more of 'em. Last month, developer Roland Kassis presented plans to Fishtown Neighbors Association for two projects on the same block, at 1114-16 Shackamaxon St. and at 1124-30 Shackamaxon St.1114-16 Shackamaxon
