1108 W Dauphin StDelivered

0-unit residential new construction, zoned CMX2.

A 0-unit residential building is set to rise at 1108 W Dauphin St in Fairhill, the kind of by-right infill quietly reshaping the block.

The 9,500 sq ft site is zoned CMX2, which supports a building on the order of 5 stories by right. The parcel last changed hands in 2025.

The owner of record is Alef Tower Holdings LLC.

It isn't rising in isolation. Within a half-mile, 10 other major projects have broken ground since 2022 — roughly 148 units of new supply — including the 19-unit project at 1108 W Dauphin St, the 35-unit project at 2132-38 N 10th St, the 9-unit project at 914-18 W Susquehanna 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?
