It depends on who you ask, some would argue it's been out of control. A lot of units going in around here and the prices are only trending upwards. When I first moved here around 2010, there were places that I'd never go because of how sketchy it was but are now littered with million dollar homes.

Thanks for the explanation and like I said, I’d be broke because I’d buy a latte every day, not because you’re trying to get one over on anyone! Best of luck with the new spot

What exactly will be out of control?

AAA Hobbies on the White Horse Pike is my favorite hobby spot. They have model train section as well.

I was going to recommend the same

Nice. So the piazza is in Kensington

3136 Richmond street. Where the old Philly river wards buy sell trade was.

send that energy towards your local youth pastor

You are correct today. But the border of NoLibs was historically the Cohocksink Creek. https://diggingi95.com/northern-liberties/

For sure. But Philly and its suburbs are way more compact unlike ATL so seeing poverty and where poor people live is pretty unavoidable even if you are only 10 min away. It's simply a heads up.

I just hope there will be more grocery stores, restaurants, bars, corner stores, better public transit etc. with all of these massive new condo buildings. Doesn't seem like commercial business or infrastructure are anywhere close to keeping up with the influx of condos. Also, would be great if they were affordable to average Philadelphians and not just wealthy NYC transplants.

As a new homeowner in this area I feel like I bought at just the right time before things will start getting out of control

Just building right over it.

My mans even used the proper astronomical scales. Sounds about gentrification lol

I always thought of Girard as the No Libs boundary, and above that Old or South Kensington

108 units and 27 car parking garage lmaooo

I'm sorry you're ok with pedophiles

Real quick - how is price determined?

Girls when they spill ~8,000 gallons of toxic chemicals into a major river leading to the Atlantic Ocean:

Oopsies haha

It’s both. Olde Kensington is in Kensington. West/east Kensington are in Kensington.

Turns out East passyunk is in south Philly

Bustleton is in northeast Philly.

Kensington is a region that spans like 8 el stops. Subdividing it into neighborhoods makes sense

I recently ate goose. Kinda tasted like a cross between chicken and beef.
