1300 Buttonwood
During the last decade, Philadelphia has seen tremendous growth in its “Loft District.” Until now, most development has centered around turning old factories into modern lofts. Finally, this area is getting a newly constructed loft condominium complex and it is going to be like no other. 1300 Buttonwood will feature luxury units inside a twin-tower complex. The buildings will be 23 and 19 stories tall and feature dramatic spires that reach toward the sky. A sky bridge will connect the two buildings.
Each home will feature astoundingly tall ceilings and plenty of glass, all designed with energy efficiency in mind. In addition to the full height glass walls, the units will contain mezzanine bedrooms and baths, modern detailing, and indoor parking. Each home will be “built to suit” according to the lifestyle of its occupants. Until now, buyers who wanted the high open spaces and flexibility of loft living only had the option of purchasing converted 19th or early 20th century industrial and office buildings. 1300 Buttonwood is unique to Philadelphia in that it offers all of the character of converted buildings, but also provides modern technology through-out.
The loft district is one of the most exciting neighborhoods in the city, in terms of potential growth. The area has seen a dramatic revival, which is obvious in both the increase in residents in existing buildings and the continued demand for more housing. The neighborhood is just steps from Center City’s cultural attractions, stores, and restaurants. Philadelphia’s vibrant and thriving Chinatown is a few blocks to the south.
This project appears to be in good hands. The developer, Miles and Generalis, is Philadelphia’s first and largest realtor to exclusively specialize in the development and sale of lofts.
