Are any of these new construction (at all price points, but seems many in choice locations are super expensive...$1MM+) homes built with ease of access in mind? I mean, American population is growing old, and many empty nesters are wanting to move back into town. Seems that Philly's housing stock, both old and new, is *very* anti-old/anti-disability people... if you have weak knees and can't climb stairs, forget about it, the city doesn't want you.

Have any of you folks with deep knowledge of Philly housing stock seen or known many rowhomes with a one-person elevator, or a chair lift? Can an elevator be retrofitted into a typical South Philly rowhome?

Just wondering... as I look to buy my first house in Philly.
