Permits have been issued for the construction of a three-story, three-unit building at 725 North 39th Street in Mantua, West Philadelphia.

The two proposals share many similarities, and the latest one will also span a footprint of 984 square feet and will include a cellar and full sprinkling. Just like the prior development, the project lists 727 N 39th Street LLC as the owner, Maher Abdelaal as the design professional, and Kumas Homes LLC as the contractor, and construction costs are also listed at $280,000.
