A New York developer is moving ahead with plans for a 620-unit apartment tower along the Delaware River in Philadelphia, presenting its proposal to the city and revealing new renderings. Brevet Capital is planning the 36-story tower at 1341 S. Christopher Columbus Blvd., between Washington Avenue and Reed Street in the Pennsport section of the city. The residential tower would have 10,150 square feet of ground-floor retail space, according to the developer’s submission to the Philadelphia Civic Design Review Committee. Construction is planned to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026 and be completed by the first quarter of 2029. Next door, Brevet is planning a single-story, 20,650-square-foot retail building.
