Built on city-owned land that had been vacant for over a decade, 777 South Broad is a vibrant mixed use “multi-family” development replacing a block-long mass of vacant and decaying row homes that was intermittently a homeless destination. The removal of the blight at 777 and the construction of a new housing and retail services hub greatly enhances the neighborhood and expands the reach of new development along a key stretch Philadelphia’s South Broad Street, known as the “Avenue of the Arts”. The 85,355 square foot site is comprised of a five-story building containing 146 luxury loft apartments, 191 parking spaces and 18,835 square feet of ground level shops and restaurants.

Designed to achieve unsurpassed energy performance, 777’s reflective roof surface allows the building to remain cool, minimizing air conditioning dependency and the production of air pollutants. Green electric power reduces pollution. The building even has a new Electric Car Charging Station now allows residents to

“fill up” in their own parking lot. Residents also have control of lighting and air temperature to minimize wasted energy.
