Two Cents
Without a doubt, the White Building condos at 105 S. 12th St. (aka 1230 Chestnut) are unique to the Center City condominium marketplace. The condos are limited in the fact that there are only 24 condo units total and designed by Goldman Properties out of NYC. Many units have barrel-shaped brick ceilings and HUGE oversize windows. The kitchens and baths are very modern, and every unit I have seen at the White Building condos has cherry floors and a lot of exposed brick. Many of the bedrooms are not sectioned off and adjoin the living room area. Some of the condos at 105 S. 12th St. are loft style with the open bedroom overlooking the living room. There is a gym on the first floor of the condo building.
