The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
County records describe a new attached building at 712 N 36th St in Mantua, West Philadelphia. It would hold nine apartments, with five off-street parking spaces and nine bicycle spaces. 'Attached' means it shares walls with neighboring buildings, as in a typical rowhouse block.
The records do not say what is on the site now. They also do not give the building's height or square footage, or say whether the units will be rentals or for sale. The latest county filing is dated May 29, 2024. BF Capital Developers LLC is the firm named on it.
A web search found no news coverage, hearing notices, meeting minutes or developer project page for this address. Nothing was found on opposition, approvals or who will live there.
What it could mean nearby
- Nine new homes would add housing on an existing city block.
- Five parking spaces for nine units means some residents may park on the street, which could add to demand for curb parking.
- Nine bicycle spaces suggest the design makes room for cycling as a way to get around.
Where it stands
The county's latest filing is from May 29, 2024. No hearing or approval outcome was found online. After a filing like this, the city usually reviews the plans for zoning compliance, then issues building permits if they pass, and construction can then begin.
