After a few years of work, Metropolitan Holdings Ltd. is moving forward on the mixed-use development at 122 Parsons Ave. in Olde Towne East.
The three-story development, which plans for 78 apartments and about 1,900 square feet of retail space on the first floor, has a new name, too – The Yardley.
That's a nod to Yardley Manufacturing Co., which used to manufacture garden hoses, plastic pipes and other materials on the site, said Matt Vekasy, principal at Metropolitan Holdings.
