The City of Philadelphia approved an ordinance to amend the Philadelphia Zoning Maps for areas bounded by Oxford Street, Cadwallader Street, Jefferson Street, Germantown Avenue, and 4th Street. The rezoning changes the designation from RSA-5 Residential Single-Family Attached to ICMX Industrial Commercial Mixed-Use. This change enables mixed-use opportunities that blend industrial and residential uses, reflecting evolving community needs and planning goals.
This rezoning fosters economic growth and encourages mixed-use development, providing flexibility for property use while promoting neighborhood revitalization.
