Brandywine Realty Trust is ready to welcome first renters to its second “vertical neighborhood,” Avira at Schuylkill Yards, writes Sandy Smith for the Philadelphia Magazine.

The residential/office/commercial building at 3025 JFK Boulevard in the University City section offers great amenities in a convenient location.

The lower floors of the building are offices, while the upper floors are made up of studio to three-bedroom luxury apartments. In between is an amenity floor that is available both to workers and residents.

This includes a co-working space, fitness club, yoga studio, game room, lounge, and bar.

Meanwhile, the pool and movie screen are on the outdoor terrace.

“We put in a huge movie screen with an outdoor lawn so we can do screenings and other public events,” said David Pieket, CEO of Gotham Organization, which developed the building.

The apartments are smartly laid out and nicely outfitted. To maximize space in the micro-studio apartments, Gotham has equipped them with Murphy beds that have couches built into the bedframes.

Altogether there are 326 units, including one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, with bi-level penthouses also available. The apartments are pet friendly.
