OVERVIEW

MaKen Studios North is a social impact investment within Philadelphia’s historic industrial corridor and one of two large adaptive reuse projects developed by Shift Capital as part of the MaKen portfolio. Originally constructed in the 1910s for the Richardson Mint Company and later home to JoMar, a discount textiles retailer and warehouse, the property has been reimagined into a vibrant, creative, and light-industrial hub serving makers, artists, small manufacturers, and entrepreneurs. Spanning approximately 120,000 square feet, the building offers flexible studios ranging from 500 to 3,500 square feet, as well as an event space with capacity for up to 500 guests. Home to more than 100 tenants, MaKen North reflects the strength of community-oriented investment through adaptive reuse, strategic leasing, and thoughtful design. Located just two blocks from the Tioga Station on the Market–Frankford Line, the property benefits from convenient transit access and IRMX zoning that supports a dynamic mix of uses. Located in the Kensington neighborhood, this property benefits from convenient amenities while also enjoying an artistic community atmosphere. In addition to its distinctive architectural appeal, 3525 I Street offers excellent access to local dining, retail options, and public transportation, facilitating effortless commutes and lunch breaks. The neighborhood offers many local spots surrounding the property, with big names just a quick drive away. The property is situated just two blocks from the Tioga Stop on the Market-Frankford El Line (an 18-minute ride to City Hall) and is only 10 minutes from the Allegheny Exit on Interstate 95.
