A recent site visit by Philadelphia YIMBY has noted considerable construction progress at the Frankford Collective, a five-story mixed-use development rising at 1144 Frankford Avenue in Fishtown. Designed by Kore Design Architecture, the building will feature ground-level commercial space and 12 apartments, as well as elevator service and a roof deck that will offer sweeping skyline vistas. Permits list the Frankford Collective as the owner, Equinox Management & Construction as the contractor, and a construction cost of $1.5 million.

When YIMBY last visited the site in March, we found the plywood structure assembled and windows installed, with interior work underway. By now, most of the plywood exterior has either been decked out in construction wrap or has received its paneled exterior. Even in its present state, the crisp, rectilinear structure makes for a fine addition to the neighborhood’s rapidly growing stock of recently built developments.
