An In-Depth Look at Townhouse Complex Proposed at 2650 Castor Avenue in Port Richmond
Last week, Philly YIMBY shared plans for a multi-family development, as seen in a recent submission to the Philadelphia planning department’s Civic Design Review, which calls for a 30-building, 68-unit townhouse complex to be constructed at 2650 Castor Avenue in Port Richmond; today we take a closer look at the proposal. The complex will be constructed on a full-block vacant lot bound by Castor Avenue to the east, Pickwick Street to the west, East Thompson Street to the north, and Edgemont Street to the south. Designed by KCA Design Associates, the development will feature 22 duplexes (two units per building) and eight triplexes (three units per building). The proposal will also include 50 parking spots, situated on an interior parking lot behind the rowhouse-style residences.
