Update to the 106 Review Process for the Former Checkers Club at 2125 Ridge Ave.

PHA developed and distributed a scope of work to clear the Unsafe Structure Violations with the City of Philadelphia. The scope of work was approved by the Consulting Parties. That work will proceed in October 2017. PHA also fenced the property to ensure the safety of the public from debris falling from the structure and to keep trespassers from entering and causing further damage to the building.
