Today in the news: DEVELOPER SENTECED TO PRISON:PHILADELPHIA - "Real estate developer Mark Mendelson was sentenced this morning to two months in prison and a $1 million fine after pleading guilty to conspiracy and bribery charges for a deal involving the purchase of a former flea market in Montgomery County." This is a good article on why it doesn't pay to cheat! The worst part about it is that even after the fine, I think he will still make a decent profit, and he only has to spend a lousy two months in prison? Move over Martha, here comes Mark!

news related to the main line and philadelphia pa area: Ardmore Condos in a pickle? More Main Line meetings on the proposed Cricket Lane project.
- 09/10/07 02:24 AM
Having grown up on the Main Line, it saddens me to think that developers want to tear down a Victorian home to build no less than 37 condos on a 1 acre lot.

Add in the fact that many of those units will have two cars, means about 10-20 additional car spaces will need to be found on-street. Oh yeah, add any friends, or family visitors, and that could add 10-30 more … (0 comments)

South Ardmore and Bryn Mawr have been targeted as locations for prime investment opportunities, and the result is that housing stock pricing has escalated, and home ownership opportunities have decreased dramatically. My community has … (2 comments)
