A recent site visit by Philly YIMBY has observed that construction has still not started at the dormant seven-story, mixed-use proposal at 310 West Girard Avenue (with a full address of 310-30 West Girard Avenue) in Northern Liberties, North Philadelphia, as we expected since no construction permits have yet been filed. The 30,102-square-foot lot, has sat vacant for around three years as of now. Designed by T + Associates Architects, the development will feature 189 residential units, 10,330 square feet of commercial space, an underground garage with 65 spaces, and parking for 68 bicycles.
The project, also known as 1176 North 3rd Street, will rise on the south side of Girard Avenue, flanked by North 3rd Street to the east and North Orianna Street to the west.
Demolition permits were issued in July 2015 and a construction permit was issued in the following month. However, no activity followed until 2017, when an additional demolition permit was issued in November.
