Yesterday, we learned from @Foobooz that the long awaited Corner Foodery had opened its doors at last. Located in the former Petulia's Folly space at 1710-12 Sansom St., this new establishment takes the Foodery concept to a whole new level.

As you may already know, the first Foodery, located in the

Last month, after footage from a privately owned security camera helped catch a murderer, we posited that privately owned cameras are far more cost effective than the small network of extremely expensive City owned cameras. We suggested that Philadelphia could benefit from the installation of more cameras, and that City Hall

Earlier this week, developers presented to a very small crowd at Weccacoe Playground Building for the monthly QVNA zoning meeting. On the agenda was the redevelopment of 512-14 S. Front St., a long-vacant lot that's been used for parking for years. The lot wraps around the building next door, extending

In West Philly, particularly on the blocks surrounding the Baltimore Avenue commercial corridor, we’ve talked more about large scale mixed-use development, business openings and community planning than smaller scale new construction projects. Think Apple Lofts and Croydon, or the unique West Philly stories about projects about the Dirt Factory and saving Saint Bernard Garden.

Back in the summer of 2011, we told you that the Philadelphia Boys Choir and Chorale would be making a move from their home in a building on the edge of Drexel's campus to a repurposed warehouse building on the 1500 block of Parrish Street. At the time, it seemed like a nice addition

A little less than a year ago, we first told you that Pearl Apartments would be bringing the old granary building at 20th & Callowhill back to life, and would also be building a new eight story mixed-use building next door. About ten months after groundbreaking, the project is definitely progressing.

The 1100 blocks of N. Howard St. and N. Hope St. have come up repeatedly on this site over the past year, mostly due to the Residences at H3, a large project that's brought twenty new homes to these blocks. As those homes have apparently been completed, we've seen some

Market Street in West Philadelphia is undergoing a facelift. That means both new towers and new tenants realized through development by major institutions. Example A: the Science Center recently announced plans to construct its first residential tower ever at 3601 Market St., and has already broken ground at 3737 Market St. on an 11-story tower with

Last week, PIDC, the citywide economic development agency and master developer of The Navy Yard, and Mayor Nutter celebrated a big milestone for the region: 10,000 employees at The Navy Yard. PIDC also took this opportunity to release the anticipated Master Plan Update, planned by Robert A.M. Stern Architects, with

We've told you on several different occasions about Philadelphia 2035, an effort to divide the city into eighteen districts and pursue a comprehensive planning process for each. We're obviously development junkies and planning is certainly one of our realms of interest. But it's not for everyone, and the folks behind
