2nd notice of Community Announces

PHILADELPHIA - EntSun -- Philadelphia, PA – The Center of Universal Divinity, in partnership with the GPASS Neighborhood Advisory Committee and the 35th District Police Department, held several public-meeting, to inform residents about the redevelopment of 193 W. Wellens Street and the adjoining abandoned railway corridor (formerly the Philadelphia, Newtown & New York Railroad).

Last in July 2025, the outreach uses flyers, social-media posts, and newspaper notices to reach households, businesses, and community hubs across the 2nd Congressional District and the City.

"This campaign ensures transparency and gives residents a voice in shaping the future of this blighted site," said Dr. Phillip Fisher Jr., President of the GPASS Neighborhood Advisory Committee and Senior Pastor of the Center of Universal Divinity.
