Construction Underway at 1350 North Front Street in Fishtown
Philadelphia YIMBY’s recent site visit has observed significant construction progress at a five-story, 14-unit mixed-use building at 1350 North Front Street in Fishtown. The structure is situated on the west side of the block between West Thompson and Master streets. The project will span 19,830 square feet and feature ground level retail and a roof deck, which, given the structure’s future prominence, will likely offer dramatic views of the Northern Liberties and Center City skylines. Permits issued in June of last year list Gnome Architects as the designer, although the previous design (featured as the cover image of the article) came from Bright Common. Permits specify GRIT Construction as the contractor and specify a construction cost of $2.3 million.
