Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Subject Property is part of the Mantua Urban Peace Garden (MUPG), a 2.5-acre community garden and recreational space that was established in May 2013. The Subject Property is owned by the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority (the �Owner�) and is leased by the Neighborhood Gardens Trust and maintained by Mt. Vernon Manor (MVM) CVC (the �Occupants�). According to city property records, the Subject Property is zoned as residential single-family housing (RSA-5). Surrounding property use is primarily residential and recreational. The Subject Property is bounded by Brown Street to the north, North 37th Street to the east, residential homes to the south, and North Dekalb Street and a residential property to the west. The area surrounding the Subject Property consists of residential housing, open park areas, a playground with a baseball field, and Southeastern Pennsylvania Public Transportation Authority (SEPTA) Regional Railroad Tracks. The area surrounding the Subject Property was developed prior to 1895. Residential properties were developed on the Subject Property prior to 1922. Between 1940s-1970s, some of the residential properties were demolished and by 1981 the Subject Property was vacant. In October 2005, the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority acquired the Subject Property. In 2013, the Subject Property and surrounding area was developed as a community garden and recreational space. One water main connection enters the Subject Property from North 37th Street. There are no other utilities (storm water/sanitary sewer, gas, electric, or telecommunications) connections at the Subject Property.
