The structure is Type V-B construction and will be fully sprinklered under NFPA 13 standards. The lot measures 1,636 square feet with a width of 20 feet. The footprint will cover approximately 71 percent of the site, leaving a 10-foot rear yard and no side or front yard setbacks.
The building height is planned at 30 feet, below the 38-foot maximum. Roof decks are included, set back five feet from the right-of-way and accessed by pilot houses. Private roof decks are designated for multiple units, adding open space amenities. Guardrails will be limited to 42 inches in height at deck perimeters.
Renderings depict a modern masonry façade with patterned brickwork and grouped window openings. The project will reinforce the row-house streetscape along North 41st Street near Girard Avenue. The development represents an infill project that adds density while respecting existing zoning limits.
