The latest entry on Philadelphia YIMBY’s First Anniversary Countdown, which tracks the most frequently mentioned article categories over the course of the past year, looked at Northern Liberties, which placed at number 18 on the list. On Saturday we looked in closer detail at the neighborhood’s northeast quadrant, which is emerging as a distinct neighborhood in its own right. Today we inquire into Northwest Northern Liberties, the second of the three principal districts that comprise the neighborhood, and some of its salient ongoing development.
Renderings have been revealed for a large residential complex with 34 single-family homes proposed at 949 North Marshall Street in Northern Liberties, North Philadelphia, near the border with the adjacent Poplar neighborhood. Designed by Gnome Architects, the complex will feature homes rising four stories tall, with variation in designs to ensure that the residences do not look exactly alike. The homes will feature roof decks and rear balconies, with some also including recessed balconies. Each will include a two-car garage, meaning that 68 parking spaces will be situated in the development.
