- A $425M revamp: Bartram Village in Southwest Philly will be replaced with 500+ affordable rentals
Philadelphia Housing Authority plans to demolish Bartram Village in July as part of a $425M project to build over 500 affordable rental units. The initiative aims to expand the agency's real estate portfolio, with PHA President Kelvin Jeremiah highlighting the goal of creating desirable homes for all income levels. Mayor Cherelle Parker's public safety emergency declaration allowed the project to bypass delays from federal historic review.
