And while this might not be the talk around the water cooler (real or virtual), we still feel compelled to share news that potentially portends progress on a

We know how much you love a story about a surface parking lot, so we've got you covered today. Let's head back to January 2022 and whisk ourselves to a five-home proposal at the corner of S. Hicks & Pine in the lovely Rittenhouse Square neighborhood. It was there that

It is not rare for projects to morph and change as they move forward, as all sorts of externalities can cause zigs and zags as a building grows from idea to realty. Sometimes, those changes can be rather dramatic, with 2112 Walnut St. being a wonderful case study. After a
