The development is situated on the southwest site of the block between Parker and Paoli avenues, and replaces a rather attractive pair of prewar houses with covered porches, second-story bay windows, and gabled dormers on the third floor. While the demolition is unfortunate, the new development puts the lot to much more effective use, well-suited for one of the area’s main thoroughfares. The Wissahickon Valley Park is located within a 12-minute walk to the northeast, and the Ivy Ridge regional rail station is situated within a 20-minut walk to the southwest.
