Philadelphia City Council has enacted a rezoning of the area bounded by Island Avenue, the Delaware Expressway, and Bartram Avenue. This zoning amendment shifts the designation of key parcels from the existing designations under Map 'A' to the new designations under Map 'B.' The affected area includes properties with strategic importance for commercial mixed-use and industrial development, reflecting the city's broader vision for economic growth and infrastructure improvement in this corridor.
This rezoning is crucial for shaping the future development landscape of a vital industrial and commercial corridor in Philadelphia. By updating the zoning maps, the city aims to stimulate economic activity, attract investment, and optimize land use in an area with significant potential for growth.
