The zoning permit indicates a building footprint of 660 square feet. The lot supports a total buildable area of 2,208 square feet. A 12-foot-7-inch rear yard exceeds the nine-foot minimum, while the building height of nearly 31 feet inches stays below the 38-foot cap. The design features a roof access structure leading to the roof deck. The building height was amended in August 2025 to a lowered maximum.
Drawings depict a brick front façade with vertical accent panels and a regular, two-over-two window rhythm above a recessed entry stoop.
The location places future residents within Mantua, with neighborhood retail on Fairmount Avenue and open-space access toward the Philadelphia Zoo district and the Schuylkill River drives.
