Irish Built: Castleway on RitSquare
Mark King of Castleway Properties and his Philly zoning lawyer, Carl Primavera, unveiled the Irish firm's latest plan for 1900 Walnut at the Philadelphia Planning Commission on Tuesday. Castleway would build a 525-foot condo tower on Sansom, a 220-foot hotel on Walnut, and 25,000 square feet of retail wrapped around the street level. Garden roofs, a pedestrian walkway.
The plan would close a block of Moravian Street, noted commissioner and building union leader Pat Eiding. That plus tower heights, and a plan to move parking and trucks underground through a narrow exit, would need city permission.
