A recent site visit by Philly YIMBY has observed that a steel superstructure has begun to rise at a seven-story, 220-unit residential building at 417-25 Callowhill Street in Northern Liberties. Designed by Bernardon, the building will be situated just to the north of Old City and will offer apartments ranging from studios to two-bedroom apartments, 29,980 square feet of amenities, and an expansive roof deck, as well as parking for 71 cars.
417 Callowhill Street, situated at the northeast corner of Callowhill and North 5th streets, just across from the elevated ramps of the I-95/I-676 interchange, is one of the many developments that are bringing a much-needed, long-overdue transformation to the sprawling, forlorn commercial and industrial district that spans most of southern Northern Liberties (aka Cohoqinoque). In the coming years, the area promises to become a dense, vibrant district with active pedestrian life and ample ground-level retail.
