The city is transferring ownership of a property at 1425 S. Paxon Street to the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority, which will then give the property to the Philadelphia Land Bank. This affects the city and the organizations involved in the transfer. The goal is to allow the Land Bank to take control of the property.
