Actual Value Initiative: Bad Move, Philadelphia

On the 2000 block of Chestnut Street sits the Philadelphia Housing Authority building ? 2012-2014 Chestnut St. to be exact. An old, faded notice is affixed conspicuously to the fa?ade, which is also graced with rotting window frames and broken windows. The city?s Office of Property Assessment records show that the building is owned by the Philadelphia Housing Authority. The symbolism is stark.
