Philadelphia's design-review panel has given the nod to
plans for a new mixed-use building near the Sugarhouse Casino in Fishtown with
169 apartment units and a 23,000-square-foot rock-climbing gym.
Members of the Civic Design Review board voted Tuesday to
end their discussion of the project at 1100 N. Delaware Ave. Since the
project's developer, Core Realty, is seeking no variances or other relief from
land-use regulations, the CDR vote clears the project for the issuance of its
zoning approvals.
Core's plan calls for the six-story structure with the
apartments and gym to be built south of the historic Edward Corner Marine
Merchandise Warehouse building near Delaware Avenue and Shackamaxon Street. The
project also calls for the restoration of the Edward Corner building to
accommodate 10 more residential units and ground-floor commercial space.
Included in the proposal are 25 surface parking spots and
75 below-grade spaces.
