The Snipes Building is one of the largest and best-quality properties on Philadelphia’s sought-after South Street, an active cosmopolitan thoroughfare of boutiques, renowned restaurants, nightlife, and more. This vibrant corridor continues to see youthful development, as evidenced by the 150-unit apartment building coming 50 yards away at Bainbridge and 5th. Its position between the Society Hill and Queen Village neighborhoods is a strong advantage for long-term value. Major landmarks like Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell are steps away, complemented by the city’s best dining and shopping destinations.
