The development at 943-49 Washington Avenue will add a significant number of new housing units to one of the city’s most charming and vibrant neighborhoods, which is home to the outdoor sidewalk stalls of the Italian Market and is located within convenient walking distance of Center City. Another development is on the drawing boards for the large site just to the south across Washington Avenue at 1101-33 South 9th Street, which will further contribute to the transformation of this rather forlorn corner of the thoroughfare.
