Philadelphia, PA
Situated at the edge of Philadelphia’s Old City, some of the oldest urban fabric in the United States, Bridge – 205 Race is a LEED Gold, luxury apartment tower with 10% affordable units. The historic character and scale of the surrounding rowhouses serve as inspiration for the building’s base as it transitions from podium to glass tower. The building’s massing and the design of its amenity spaces establish visual connections with the pedestrian promenade of the Ben Franklin Bridge and downtown Philly, inviting the city in.
“Bridge is a model of how a commercial development can also be a good public citizen.”
“This project added urban density, but also created humane public spaces at the same time.”
