Permits Issued for 3351 North 19th Street in Nicetown-Tioga, North Philadelphia

Permits have been issued for the construction of a four-story, six-unit residential building at 3351 North 19th Street in Nicetown-Tioga, North Philadelphia. The new building will rise from a large vacant lot located on the southeast corner of Ontario and North 19th streets. Designed by Designblendz, the building will span 4,240 square feet. Permits list J&T Construction as the contractor.

Permits specify a construction cost of $632,999, which yields an average cost of around $149 per interior square foot. Of this total, $8,500 is earmarked for excavation work.

The building will rise on a sloped site where the street-facing first floor becomes a partially submerged basement at the rear, lending to the structure’s designation as a three-story building in the permits. The structure will be styled in an attractive, historicist Second Empire style with a stone veneer exterior, vertical paneled windows, a trimmed two-story street-facing cantilever, and a top floor stylized as a mansard roof.

3351 North 19th Street will rise within a 15-minute walk to the northwest of the Allegheny Station on the Broad Street subway line, which sits by the Temple University Hospital campus. The Allegheny regional rail station sits somewhat closer, sited within a ten-minute walk to the southwest of the proposed development. Route 2, 33, and 60 buses also run within walking distance of the property.
