The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
The project is a new four-story apartment building with a cellar at 4129 Ogden St in Belmont, West Philadelphia. It would hold 10 multi-family units. A news report on the permits puts the building at about 16,500 square feet and about 38 feet tall, on a mid-block lot of roughly 4,550 square feet.
The county record says it is built to approved plans. A construction-news site reported that permits were issued in March 2024, with an estimated construction cost of $1.2 million. That report names a design firm and a general contractor, and the project is listed under Sesli Propeties LLC in county records. It did not describe what is on the lot now.
No opposition, hearing, or news coverage beyond the permit report was found. No information was found on who will live there, or on whether the units will be rented or sold.
What it could mean nearby
- Adds 10 homes to a mixed-use area with shops and transit options nearby.
- Construction activity on a mid-block street may bring temporary noise, deliveries and parking pressure.
- The report lists small yard and open-area figures, so the building would cover most of its lot.
Where it stands
Permits have been issued and the plans are approved, so the project can move to construction. Next steps are usually building, separate inspections for mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire-suppression work, and then an occupancy certificate. No construction schedule has been announced.
