Permits have been issued for a four-unit multi-family development at 1832 North 22nd Street in Cecil B. Moore, North Philadelphia. Upon completion, the new building will rise three stories tall, with a roof deck at the top. Permits call for 7,247 square feet of space, a seemingly large volume for a rowhouse-sized lot.
