Quote:

Demolition work is underway on “The Galvo” at 2501 E Hagert Street in Olde Richmond to make way for 27 townhomes with 32 parking spots. The development team and neighbors have been working for years on a plan to safely demolish the former galvanization plant due to the property’s environmental hazards. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly and all contamination is contained. Are you happy to see this eyesore finally get demolished?

2400 E. Huntingdon Street project in Olde Richmond - Update from Rising Real Estate

Quote:

The 7-story, 150-unit, mixed use building at 2400 E Huntingdon St in Olde Richmond is now topped out. The project is replacing an old warehouse complex. Years ago, developers proposed a much less dense adaptive reuse plan for the warehouse, but neighbors shot it down, leading to today’s project. Would you have preferred the adaptive reuse plan, or do you like the current project?

‘A return to normal’: New report shows silver lining for renters in Philadelphia

Prices remain high, but aren’t growing at the rate they were during the pandemic.

ByAaron MoselleJuly 12, 2023

“Renters are finally getting a breather,” said Zillow senior economist Orphe Divounguy.

Typical rent in the metro remains high, but rose just 0.4% from May to June, according to the report. That translates to $1,864 — about $150 less a month than the typical rent across the country.

Year-over-year, rents here have increased 3%, putting the metro around the middle of the pack when comparing other big cities. Washington, Boston, and New York all had higher increases and remained more expensive than Philadelphia.

Nationally, rents are up 4.1% over the same time last year, reaching $2,054.

My office is in the Public Ledger Building and we just received notice that they will be converting the whole building into condos. We have until the end of the year to move out so its seems they would get started pretty quick.

Looks like the Melrose Diner will be demolished and a five-story building will rise in its place:

One of the problems with the buildings (new and old) on this stretch of 2nd Street is that the first floor commercial spaces have ceilings that are too low. This looks to be no different. IMO, it's one of the reasons why NoLibs hasn't been able to attract signature restaurants. The spaces are too chopped up and claustrophobic.

Where did you spot this painting? I may buy it today haha

I'll never forget Bryce's "swing of his life" and the night it happened. I remember the moment I hurt my ankle from jumping up and down on the 2nd floor of McGillin's after the ball left the park, but still running out into Broad Street climbing poles when we knew we were going to the World Series. Best injury ever!
