It was a little more than a month ago that we told about plans from developer Turloque Hart to build three new homes on 17th Street between Titan and Latona, on a lot that recently looked like the Amazon.

In the time that's passed since then, the project has moved along

Bikers in Spring Garden, Francisville, and Fairmount will have a safer ride this spring as bike lanes are likely coming to Fairmount Avenue between Broad Street and Pennsylvania Avenue.

Community opinion was collected during the last three months, according to Nicholas Mirra, communications coordinator for the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia. That includes members

A couple of days ago, we showed you some renderings of a new retail building at 15th & Walnut, designed by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson. Today, we have another project to bring to your attention from the same architects, this time with a much larger footprint and on the other end of

A little over a week ago, we gave you the good news that a long-vacant lot on the corner of 2nd & Reed was slated to become six new market-rate houses. At the time, we noted the various benefits to the location, including the popular Herron Playground and the relatively

We'd heard rumblings that tenants would include the gross but extremely popular Cheesecake Factory, a Sovereign Bank branch, and Japanese clothing retailer Uniqlo.

Back in the dark ages (2011), the area now known as The Porch at 30th Street Station was 34 parallel parking spaces. It was a chance for Philadelphia’s finest drivers to display their parking prowess. Now, the half-acre strip of land located along the Market Street side of the nation’s third busiest

Oh Philadelinquency, we think you're swell. Not only are you remarkably capable when it comes to digging up dirt on deplorable landlords and bad actors in this city, but you've also been a strong government watchdog since you've been doing your thing. And now, as tax delinquency is again on

A decade ago, if you skateboarded in downtown Philly you might have well sewed a scarlet letter (or skateboard?) across your chest. The Street administration implanted metal cleats on railings and benches at Dilworth Plaza to deter skateboarders in March 2004. A couple of months later, the Street administration declined
