Permits Issued for 96-Unit Building at 7165 Keystone Street in Tacony, Northeast Philadelphia

Permits have been issued for the construction of a five-story, 96-unit residential building at 7165 Keystone Street in Tacony, Northeast Philadelphia. The plan appears to be a slight downgrade from the six-story, 102-unit development submitted to the Civic Design Review last year and covered in our October article, but since the siting and scale generally remain very similar, we are displaying them here to give the reader an idea of the overall development. In addition to residences, the project will also include a 11,208-square-foot commercial component. Permits list 7165 Keystone Investments as the owner, Brett Harman of Harman Deutsch Ohler Architecture as the design professional, and High Tower Penn as the contractor. Construction costs are listed at $15 million.
