Philadelphia City Council approved a spot rezoning from I-2 (Industrial) to CMX-2 (Commercial Mixed-Use) for a new mixed-use development at 142 W Lehigh Ave. The project involves the construction of a building with ground-floor retail and residential units above. This change aligns with the city's comprehensive plan to encourage mixed-use development in transit-accessible corridors and aims to revitalize the area by introducing new housing and commercial opportunities. The development is expected to contribute to the local economy and provide much-needed housing options.
