Mazzoni Center has a new home for the LGBTQ community

Project turned an office building into a new healthcare center


After years of shuffling patients between various healthcare facilities scattered throughout Philadelphia, the Mazzoni Center has a new home base, according to the Curbed Philadelphia website.
