Petoni Construction will build 313 two to three-story brick townhouses on a 30-acre parcel of land that was formerly owned by the city. The area is located on Hartranft Street off of Penrose Avenue. Petoni was unable to answer GlobeSt.com queries before deadline.
"We are proud to play such an integral role in the revitalization of the Packer Park neighborhood," says Donna Bartynski, president of Petoni Construction and developer of Siena Place, in a prepared statement. "At Siena Place, residents will live the ultimate South Philadelphia lifestyle. No where else in America can you find such unique character, culture, history, and ambience."
Other members of the development crew could not be reached for interview after many attempts. "And the allure of South Philly living creates a highly desirable and convenient location that offers easy access to Philadelphia's major highways, sports stadiums, Center City restaurants and boutiques, and the Jersey shore."
The Philadelphia Housing Authority purchased the site, which was formerly a naval barracks. The planned community will have new sidewalks and parks. The roads have been designed to cut down on traffic. The units will cost in the mid $400,000s, have three to five bedrooms and either a yard or a deck.
