A proposed mixed-income housing development, including a grocery store and community health center, is planned near the Frankford Transportation Center in Northeast Philadelphia. The Frankford Community Development Corp. aims to construct a five-story, 132-unit building at 5129-35 Frankford Ave., close to the last stop on the Market-Frankford Line. This development will feature 60 affordable housing units, an 18,854-square-foot grocery store, and a 40,000-square-foot health center run by the City of Philadelphia, named Frankford Plaza. According to the project summary, the strategic location near one of Philadelphia’s busiest transit hubs makes it ideal for transit-oriented development. Given that Frankford is one of the city’s most challenged communities, it also serves as an excellent location for low-income housing and essential services for the community at large.
