Project HOME, a Philadelphia nonprofit, plans a new four-story building at 4225 N Park Avenue in Hunting Park. It would hold 45 small efficiency apartments and some office space. A city environmental notice from May 2025 says the work also includes buying and renovating the neighboring building on West Hunting Park Avenue. The same notice puts the total cost at about $20.2 million.
The site is currently vacant. A real-estate news outlet reported in July 2025 that building permits had been issued. The notice says the Philadelphia Housing Authority will provide rental assistance for all 45 units.
In October 2025, Project HOME announced a groundbreaking for a 45-apartment building called House of Grace on nearby West Hunting Park Avenue. It is for people leaving homelessness. It appears to be this same project, but the page does not give the N Park Avenue address. No opposition was found.
What it could mean nearby
- Adds 45 homes on a vacant lot, aimed at people moving out of homelessness.
- Ground-floor office space could bring some on-site services or staff, though the sources do not say who will use it.
- Renovating the adjacent Hunting Park Avenue building would put another existing property back into use.
- The sources say nothing about traffic, parking, schools or utilities.
