About 1600-18 Arch St #1905
Located on the 19th floor (only 1 floor down from the roof top) in the heart of Philadelphia, across the street from City Hall and in front of the Comcast Office towers, just minutes from the Philadelphia’s prestigious Rittenhouse Square and the best restaurants and nightlife that Philadelphia offers. It sits in the towering Georgian Revival-style building known simply as The Phoenix. Built in 1925 the historic building (also holding a National Historic Landmark status) bears the signature of lauded local architects Stewardson & Page. As such, it features intricate details that date back to that time, ranging from coffered ceilings to Kasota and Carrera marble floors and walls, ornate bronze paneled elevators, and elaborate mill and plaster work. Renovated in 2000, this it retains the remarkable craftsmanship and exquisite stonework of its original construction. The stunning faade, punctuated by granite Corinthian columns, carved eagles perched on globes and limestone cornice crowns, recaptures the spirit of a bygone era. Through the bronze entryways, are exquisite interior spaces graced with elaborate architectural inscriptions—marble walls and floors, coffered ceilings and bronze elevator doors. Among the bevy of new construction and architectural styles emerging throughout Center City Philadelphia, The Residences at the Phoenix stands alone in its historic grandeur and cannot be rivaled by any new construction in the City. With hardwood floors, motorized automatic custom window shades, plenty of closets, all new stainless still appliances, granite kitchen countertops, new LG AI smart washer and dryer, this unique condo faces and has wide open unobstructed views of the quiet Benjamin Franklin Parkway (not obstructed views on the building’s other side), only a floor away from the Building’s stunning terrace with herbal garden, facing the City Hall --- it is a RARE find! Don't lose your chance to see it before it's gone!
