A new four-story apartment building with 48 homes is planned at 2033 West Toronto Street in Philadelphia. County records say it will have an amenity space on the ground floor, meaning a shared room for residents, and some on-site parking for the building.

The only company named on the county filing is McDonald Building Co LLC. The latest filing is dated October 9, 2024.

No news coverage, hearing notices, neighborhood meeting records or developer project page was found for this address. The records do not say what is on the site now, whether anyone has objected, or who will live there. The explanation here rests only on the county facts.

What it could mean nearby

Where it stands

The county shows a filing in October 2024 for the proposed building. No approval, hearing or construction start was found online. Next steps usually include city review of the plans, any needed zoning approval, and then building permits.

Who's behind it

McDonald Building Co LLC

Planning terms explained
Accessory parking
Parking that serves the main building, such as spaces for residents, rather than a separate parking lot business.
Amenity space
A shared area for residents, such as a lounge, fitness room or meeting room.
Zoning variance
Special permission to build something that differs from the rules for that area, decided at a public hearing.
Dwelling unit
One separate home or apartment with its own living, sleeping, cooking and bathroom space.

We searched the web for this project but found nothing beyond the county record, so this explanation is based on the filing alone. Researched by AI from public sources on Nov 1, 2026. It can make mistakes, so check the linked sources and the municipality before relying on it.

How to comment officially

For this project: If a zoning variance is needed, the city's Zoning Board of Adjustment decides and holds public hearings. Neighbors can also contact the local registered community organization and the City Council district office.

This is a building permit for work that current zoning allows, so there is usually no public hearing.
