The project includes 55,000 square feet of retail, which is certainly hot and in-demand along the Walnut/Chestnut corridor.
It also has 64 condominiums and 342 apartments. 64 condominiums could EASILY be sold here. One Riverside is practically sold out before it's finished construction. 10 Ritt and 1706 Ritt are also completely sold out. Rittenhouse Square is the hottest location in the city - those condos would fly off of the shelves here.
The same can be said for the 342 apartments. 1919 Market has 278 luxury apartments and is 67% leased after only 6 months of leasing. Normally buildings take about 13 months to lease up - this will exceed that rate. 342 apartments at 19th and Walnut? Yes please, this would be leased up in no time. 19th and Walnut is a MUCH hotter location that 20th and Market.
