Harman Deutsch Architects proposed several changes to a live-work development project at 1222 North 2nd Street in South Kensington. As we previously reported, the building was originally set to include eight live-work spaces and commercial space on the first floor, along with 78 other apartments (each with their own balcony), and a green roof terrace on the fourth floor.

The committee behind the Civic Design Review extolled the designers’ proposed amendments. Each floor will now be reduced by one live-work space and an apartment unit to boot. There will be a total of seven work spaces and more than 64 apartment units. The new proposal also includes a green roof, cafe seating along American and Thompson Streets and a pedestrian pathway partitioning the structure. An industrial warehouse is at present situated there.

A little more than a year ago, Philadelphia Scooters approached the Olde Richmond Civic Association (ORCA) with the intent of opening a new location at 2365 – 2367 East York Street. But their efforts apparently never came to fruition. At the end of last year, the owners of the garage applied for permits to add a second floor to the currently roofless, boarded-up structure. It is unclear what is to become of the building.
