Yesterday, we told you about a smallish house being built on the 1700 block of Kater St., on an unusually shaped lot. Turns out, there are a couple of other construction projects just a stone's throw away.

At 626 S. 18th St., a single family home is replacing a duplex. It's

It's been awhile since our last update on North 28, the large development at 1238 N 28th St. from MM Partners. Today, we had the unique pleasure of witnessing a sight not often seen- the assembly of several modular components to form the structure that will soon become three one-bedroom

We were creeping around the 800 block of Leithgow St. (it's more complicated to find than you might imagine) and discovered two foundations on the southern end of the block and another foundation behind those, fronting Lawrence St.

It took us awhile to figure out the address of these foundations, and

The development of six five-story town homes on 22nd St., just north of Race St. can now move beyond the earliest planning stages, since the developer and neighbors have sat down to discuss neighbors’ concerns, via the Logan Square Neighborhood Association (LSNA) Zoning Committee.

Famous Dave's BBQ Shack has shuttered its doors, a little over a year into its lease at 1725 Chestnut Street.  If you're still jonesing for some Famous Dave's, the locations on Columbus Blvd and in the Northeast are still open! Otherwise, you may just have to slum it at Phoebe's BBQ at 2214 South St. or

Last week, a variance was granted for the complete reconstruction of 1533 Manton St. on an existing foundation, with new front, side, and rear walls, and new floor and roof joists. Taking a quick glance at the building, you would think that this

According to the zoning application, 1526 S. 10th St., a one-story corner property a block off of Passyunk Avenue, is set to gain three stories in the coming months. It's not so often that we see multiple stories added to a row home, but we don't see a whole lot

Back in June, we gave you the lowdown on two homes being built by G-8 Life in New Kensington, at 2200 Amber St. and 2400 Amber St. The homes, built with sustainable materials and in an ultra-green fashion, will have an appearance unlike any other houses in the city, let alone
