I agree. I need to stay more liquid at the moment, but if I was willing to tie up cash, I'd look to invest in this area. Mantua especially. The real estate in Powelton Village is already kind of pricey (though still room to appreciate through area development). Mantua should go up A LOT in the coming years. It's not only this project, either. There are projects West of this (Platinum Corridor), and a lot of development happening Southwest of this as well. West Philly is going to completely transform over the next decade or two.
