The structure will replace a single-story garage structure that offers no preservation-worthy features. While no renderings are available for the project, it will likely stand out from the surroundings.
The neighborhood of Marconi Plaza, located at the southern fringe of South Philadelphia, has a pleasant ambiance with many corner restaurants, bakeries, and small businesses. New construction is a rarity in the neighborhood, in part because of a shortage in developable land since the area is already densely built up and has virtually no vacant land parcels anymore.
Oregon Station on the Broad Street Line offers proximate transit access. The Navy Yard is located within walking or biking distance.
