Not sure how they found Frankford but we are certainly walkable and we do have some new construction at Leiper and Harrison.
Philadelphia ranked first among the top 10 cities leading the way in walkable new home construction, according to Redfin , the next-generation real estate brokerage.
“Philly is on fire when it comes to walkable new construction,” said Redfin agent Tom Lewis. “In nearly every direction you look there are new apartments or condos going up and older buildings are being rehabilitated. A lot of these new homes are in extremely walkable areas that are getting more walkable by the day; places like Northern Liberties ,Fishtown, Frankford, South Philly and Point Breeze are seeing a lot of new construction activity. Buyers who are getting priced out of New York and Washington D.C. are flocking to Philly and developers are rushing to meet the demand. A lot of the new construction buildings are also mixed-use, which in turn is increasing walkability throughout the city.”
