3335 N 16th StCleared to build

4-unit residential new construction, zoned RSA3.

A 4-unit residential building is set to rise at 3335 N 16th St in Nicetown & Tioga, the kind of by-right infill quietly reshaping the block. It was cleared to build in Dec 30, 2021.

The 3,070 sq ft site is zoned RSA3, which supports a building on the order of 3 stories by right. Records show the parcel last traded in 2016 for $19K. The plans call for for the construction of a three-story structure with pilothouse to access private roof decks, accessory to dwelling units #3 and #4, for use as total of four (4) dwelling units, as per approved plans.

The owner of record is 16th And 17th Investment.

It isn't rising in isolation. Within a half-mile, 6 other major projects have broken ground since 2022 — roughly 178 units of new supply — including the 43-unit project at 3249 N 16th St, the 27-unit project at 3216 N 16th St, the 40-unit project at 1510 W Allegheny Ave. That kind of concentration is exactly what pulls land values, and buyer attention, toward a block.

We'll update this page as the project progresses — leasing, retail tenants, renderings, and construction milestones as they surface. The relevant question for investors and agents: what are the surrounding parcels worth to a builder now that this is coming?
