Outline
The Lippincott is a boutique luxury condominium building overlooking the east side of Washington Square in Center City Philadelphia. Converted to 33 condominium residences in 2005, the building combines a historic setting with large, sophisticated residences and a location that is hard to beat.
The Lippincott is an elevator building, with some elevators opening directly into individual residences. Many units include parking, and select condos offer private outdoor space. Floor plans range from single-level residences to larger bi-level penthouses, and individual units are generally known for their high-quality finishes and generous proportions.
Located on 6th Street between Walnut and Locust Streets, The Lippincott offers immediate access to Washington Square and is just a few blocks from Jefferson University Hospital. For buyers who want a smaller luxury building rather than a large high-rise, The Lippincott offers an unusual combination of privacy, location and upscale Center City living.

Two Cents
Front units designated with a “W” hold a more substantial value as they face Washington Square. The condos at 227 S. 6th St. are anything but cookie-cutter. Original details including some examples of exposed beams and brick. This Lippincott sits on the east side of Washington Square and is a boutique, mid-rise, pre-war styled, doorman building with parking. The Lippincott condos back up to Randolph Street, which provides parking spaces for the residents. The trifecta of Center City condo living for many area condo dwellers. The building has many corner units, and the windows are generally huge. I am struck by the variety in floor plans, layouts, and styles throughout the building. The rear of the building faces back toward St. James Court, a lovely set of stacked townhouse condos, and where cars enter and exit the garage.
The smallest unit in the building is 1600 sq ft.. and may reach well over 3000 sq. ft. Since the building was only converted into condos and sold off in 2004 (many as raw space)- no two interiors are alike. Nada. Zip. Nil. A nice variety of floor plans and sized units add to the non-homogeneous feel of the 26 units in the building.
We sold a few stunning homes that faces Washington Square in The Lippincott, and the buyers are nothing short of delighted.
