John Coltrane House BREWERYTOWN - The Brewerytown house that once belonged to famed jazz saxophonist John Coltrane will not be torn down, but a neighboring property has applied for demolition.Philadelphia Licenses and Inspection said Saturday the next door property at 1509 North 33rd Street has secured a zoning permit, but a demolition permit is still under review.
The clarification comes after many have pointed out a "Notice of Demolition" sign on the home with a deadline of March 10. An L&I spokesperson told FOX 29 this message needs to be revised to show that a nearby property has filed for a demolition application which can not happen before March 10.
