The interior (gallery below) would have surprised them.



It’s unlike anything else you’ll see in Center City residential living, particularly for the time it was built. Some call the interior sterile, some call it beautiful. The architects thought of it as sculpture.

It has many attributes buyers are looking for in city homes but can’t often find: It’s flooded with light; it has off-street parking for multiple cars; it offers spaces to serve as rental units; it has a roof deck and a garden courtyard. Yet it’s very much in the middle of the action.
