Construction Anticipated at 2846 Belgrade Street in Port Richmond, Kensington

7:30 am on July 22, 2022 By Vitali Ogorodnikov

A recent site visit by Philadelphia YIMBY has shown that construction has not yet started for a single-family dwelling proposed at 2846 Belgrade Street in Port Richmond, Kensington, although permits have been issued in October 2020. The development was originally planned as an expansion of the existing structure, which is situated on the northwest side of the block between East Somerset and East Auburn streets. It appears that the latest plans for the through-block lot call for an unspecified “change of use” for the existing rowhouse at Belgrade Street and construction of a new single-family building on the Miller Street side, which, in a blueprint produced by Agim Belulaj, is shown as a four-story structure designed in a traditionally inspired manner.
