Back in April, we checked in on the 1900 and 2000 blocks of Titan Street, noting three new homes under construction on the 2000 block and two more on the 1900 block. Since our last visit, there's been plenty of progress, as one would hope.
In recent weeks, the new home at the corner and 2004 Titan St. have both sold. 2002 Titan St. is still on the market, at a list price of $355K. Considering the fact that this corner was a giant vacant lot for many years, the transformation is pretty unbelievable.
Looking over to the 1900 block, different changes are afoot. 1944 Titan St., which replaced a long-vacant home one off the corner, has been finished and is now under agreement at a list price of around $350K. At the corner is a big home that went up last year in the place of another vacant lot.
A few doors down, at 1930 Titan St., the same developers that rehabbed 1944 Titan St. are doing more of the same. Unlike the home near the corner, 1930 Titan St. has a third floor setback, which will hopefully only have a minimal impact on the upstairs floorplan.
As for the lot next door where there's currently scaffolding, it's owned by city agency PHDC. And while we're typically banging the drum that City agencies never sell to developers, one of the new homes on the 2000 block sits on a lot formerly owned by PHDC. So on Titan Street in Point Breeze, perhaps there's hope after all! As for the rest of the city, uh, kindly check back some other time.
