It just needs a little love and care. This promising opportunity for an investor or developer is just waiting to be subdivided into two lots.</p>
<p>Currently 18X100, street-to-street from 4th St to Leithgow, with a super width and great location in rapidly developing Kensington South, just a stone's throw from Northern Liberties. Great comps for new construction in the area. Or a super opportunity to hold a vacant lot for the future.</p>
<p>At a price you can get cozy with...$99,900. <strong><strong><strong><strong> Contact <a href="http://www.thesomersteam.com/contact.php" target="_blank">the Somers Team</a> for more information.</strong></strong></strong></strong></p>

the community through arts and design. In conjunction with <a href="http://www.designphiladelphia.org/" target="_blank">DesignPhiladelphia</a>, JDT International will<br />
dedicate the Urban Topiary on Saturday, October 22.</p>
<p>From the press release:</p>
<p>Designed and constructed by PrePost, the Urban Topiary compliments the newly completed nine-unit housing development, The Flats at Girard Pointe (1221-1233 N. 3rd Street), developed by Jeffrey Tubbs of JDT International Inc and Joseph Matta of CRL2 Associates, LLC. The new housing development is surrounded by over 100 of the Urban Topiary’s digitally fabricated galvanized steel tubes that unite the public sidewalk and the adjacent private yards of the housing development. The tubes make for spiraling armature for flowering vines and ivy to grow, creating an undulating topiary in the heart of Olde Kensington.</p>
