House hunting: PHA offers 400+ properties for auction

POSTED: Wednesday, October 26, 2011, 11:31 AM

This afternoon at 1 p.m. at the Warnock Center, or Nov. 2, 1-3 p.m. at Grays Ferry Center you can check out some of the 400-plus properties that will be auctioned off on Nov. 16. The auction's promotional material targets "individuals, builders and investors"; the latter, we hope, is not code for speculators, who are some of the culprits in Philly's existing blight problem. The full list of properties is online, along with an interactive map.
