September 12, 2007 - Sabrina Reichart had happily purchased one of the new townhouses in Port Richmond Gate, at 3566 Edgemont St. for around $150,000. The development runs along E. Venango St. and sits between ahompson and Edgemont St.
Corroded pipes, faulty air conditioners, flooding, and loose siding are only a few of the problems residents have faced since the town homes were built in 2003. The homeowners were promised comfortable, affordable housing but soon discovered hidden problems.
But what mostly concerns homeowners and residents in Port Richmond Gate is something far more serious: their health.
“This is our main concern,” says Cathy Lewandowski of 3548 Edgemont Street. “We want to know what we are living on. [We want to know] if it’s going to affect our health.
“I don’t want to find out I have cancer in two years,” Lewandowski concludes—and she does this on the basis of tests.
