Sally Gardens Apartments Philadelphia, PA

Sally Gardens Apartments is an entirely new-construction LEED-registered mixed use project on the Lancaster Avenue Commercial Corridor in West Philadelphia. Every resident has access to a large roof deck nestled amid a fully vegetated green roof with stunning big-sky views of Philadelphia. Inside, the apartments provide a modern open floor plan, french doors opening on to balconies with views to the southern horizon, Forest Stewardship Council certified acacia wood floors, tiled kitchens and baths, 100% recycled paper counter and vanity tops, and full sized side-by-side front-loading energy- and water-efficient washers and dryers. Every jack in every room is part of the resident's own password protected Gigabit network segment that provides reconfigurable access to ethernet, regular telephony, IP telephony, cable television and a rooftop over-the-air HDTV antenna. The great room and bedrooms are also pre-wired for satellite television.

Sally Gardens Apartments will be completed in May, 2009 and the apartments will be available for occupancy on June 1, 2009. Sally Gardens Apartments is registered with the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) program. Upon completion of construction in May 2009, Sally Gardens Apartments will apply for LEED certification at the Gold level. Although certification cannot be guaranteed, Sally Gardens Apartments is on schedule to be the first certified mixed-use project and to offer the first rental units in a LEED certified building in the City of Philadelphia.
