In Fishtown

The building that last housed the Grace of God Church of Deliverance at 2121 E. Cumberland St. is no more. In fact, it was demolished several months ago, we just didn't get over there to snap a photo since the demolition took place until the other day. The building was quite sizable and

The same reader that gave us the heads up about the upcoming Fishtown Residence project on the 2300 block of E. York Street was also wondering about a seemingly stalled construction project across the street. 2365-67 E. York St. is a double-wide garage that looks like it housed an auto shop

A reader reached out the other day, having noticed a demolition notice at 2338 E. York St., a one-story building that we could have sworn we wrote about previously. But alas, we haven't, so here we go. The building was most recently home to a screen printing business but according

We were zipping around Fishtown the other day and happened upon some construction activity at 11 W. Thompson St., right near Frankford Avenue. Saint John's Memorial Baptist Church had made its home here for quite some time, but the building dates back to the 1800s when it was built for

It was back in the summer of 2014 that we first told you about development plans for 2412 E. Gordon St., a rather large parcel which was at that time home to an out-of-place one-story rancher.Just a couple years agoBack then, developers had come to the community with a plan

We've passed by the former warehouse at 1601 N. Front St. many times over the last several months, repeatedly telling ourselves to find out what's going on with the property. To give some detail, this old warehouse next to the El has been getting work done for quite some time,

The 2400 block of Frankford Avenue is perhaps best known for being the home of Philadelphia Brewing Company, makers of Kenzinger and other tasty adult beverages. While many other blocks of Frankford Ave. have seen tremendous infill development over the years, this block has maintained a higher level of vacancy.

Earlier this week, we told you about plans for six homes at 1208-12 E. Susquehanna Ave., a large parcel near Girard Avenue that's three times as deep as it is wide. The site currently underused, with only two houses and a bunch of one-story garages on the 7,700+ sqft property.Current
