    Overview

    1540 Hamilton Street is a 22,977 SF corner development site with two extremely large street frontages. The property offers 230 feet of frontage on 16th Street and 100 feet on Hamilton Street, providing substantial frontage for new construction along both sides of the block.

    The parcels are currently zoned CMX-4. This zoning allows for neighborhood-serving retail and service uses, as well as multifamily residential uses. The site is located in the Logan Square area, directly across from Callowhill, with access to Broad Street and the Central Business District, and it also sits near Philadelphia’s Art Museum district. It is next to the next phase of the Rail Park, described as “The Cut.”

    The seller also owns the adjacent site at 16th & Callowhill (1527-47 Callowhill Street), totaling 40,849 +/- SF, and is offering a “unity of use” strategy between the two parcels to support increased combined FAR. Both sites are zoned CMX-4, and the “unity of use” approach is presented as enabling a combined FAR of 318,585, plus any additional FAR bonuses that may be available for a high-rise building. Site plans for both properties are included with the offering.
