The Lyndon at The Curtis – Post By Jaime Hyman
I am a sucker for new construction, but hey let’s face it, aren’t we all? There’s nothing quite like brand new hardwood floors and a beautiful fresh kitchen. However, what really gets me going is new construction WITH some of that sought-after Philadelphia historic charm. The two combined together create an unbeatable combo and uniqueness that defines this city.
Having an office in Society Hill I am exposed to this beauty constantly. Recently, I discovered some construction across the street from my office building which perked my ears right up. I quickly came to learn that Scully Company was taking on a project to create 63 luxury rental units in the historic Curtis Building at 6th and Walnut. I toured the building in the middle of construction and was immediately hooked.

As their extremely knowledgeable and passionate leasing agent, Molly Shapcott, always says “they didn’t cut any corners here.” The finishes compare to a brand new condominium building, along with high ceilings, original window detail and state of the art amenities.
I left the tour thrilled and had to share the news. Within days, I had a client moving from New Zealand to sign a 9-month lease (yes, they accommodated that no problem!). Shortly after, I had another client applying for the 3 bed + den, 3.5 bath duplex penthouse unit. Since then I have had another 2 bedroom client and another 2 bed + den duplex client.
Long story short, if you are looking for a new building with the best amount of historic charm, look no further than the Lyndon At The Curtis. Please let me know if you have interest in checking this amazing building out. I pretty much go on a weekly basis to check on the progress along with visit the friendly leasing staff! Feel free to come along with me next time I go. 🙂
