West Poplar Neighborhood Housing Development Plan

Working closely with a project team consisting of city planning and development agencies, community members, and a non-profit housing developer, KSK prepared a plan to guide the redevelopment of the West Poplar area of North Philadelphia. The project includes a proposal for 200 units of new affordable for-sale housing, mostly twin homes on private lots. The units feature private rear yards, off-street parking, front porches, and varying rooflines to create a lively streetscape. KSK modified the existing street layout to create a safer cul-de-sac play street and a village green.
