About a year and a half ago, we passed along the exciting news that 801-805 N. 2nd St., the self-proclaimed “Best Corner Left in Northern Liberties,” was finally going to be developed. Plans were approved by the ZBA for a six-story building with ten apartments, ground-floor commercial, and almost 1:1 parking.

We were in the area just last week and spotted some new construction on the 1500 block of Poplar Street. As you might expect, we went right to the L&I Map to see what we could learn about this new development, which is replacing a vacant lot.

We last visited little Capitol Street back in July, when we told you about a completed project on the 700 block, along with an in-progress project and a coming soon project on the 800 block. We were back on the 800 block earlier this week thanks to a tip from

It seems like every time we venture up near Temple's campus, there's some new development to report. We still remember what this area looked like over a decade ago, which makes the last few years all the more amazing to us. Perhaps almost as incredible as the ongoing transformation taking

When the Duck Flats proposal was first presented back in 2008, things were a go for twenty-five new condos in the form of ten units on the 800 block of N. Lawrence St. and fifteen to be built at 818-24 N. 4th St., incorporating a garage that once stored the Ride the Ducks boats.

Almost a whole year ago, we told you that OCF Realty had signed a lease for 1200 Point Breeze Ave., most recently home to the fabulously named Munson Manor. At that time, we told you that the concept had not yet been finalized for the space, and over the summer
