A recent site visit by Philly YIMBY has confirmed that construction is complete at The View at Brandywine, a four-story, 22-unit residential development at 520 North 37th Street in Mantua, West Philadelphia. The building stands at the southwest corner of North 37th Street and Brandywine Street. Designed by KCA Design Associates, the building spans 32,370 square feet and features an elevator and a roof deck. Construction costs are listed at $4 million.

The development’s exterior of beige brick, gray and burgundy panels, and horizontal siding is rather conventional, though loggia balconies add a cozy touch to the building’s appearance. Units span from one to four bedrooms and feature wooden cabinets, stainless steel appliances, Carrara quartz countertops, and washer and dryers.
The View at Brandywine, which may also be alternately described as located in Powelton Village, stands just to the north of University City, which may be reached via a roughly seven-minute walk to the south (the Penn Presbyterian Medical Center and Drexel University are the nearest major attractions). The route 10 trolley runs along Lancaster Avenue to the south and west, offering access to Center City and beyond.
The development, which replaces a single-story warehouse-style chemical supply facility, makes for a significant improvement in a rapidly-growing neighborhood. Ample vacant land still remains available for development in the area, and we look forward to announcements of new development in the vicinity in the near future.
