Philadelphia Office

In Philadelphia, the name “Brickstone” is synonymous with large-scale historic rehabilitation and adaptive reuse projects. Brickstone won national acclaim for its conversion of the 1,890,000-square-foot Wanamaker Department Store into a fully leased mixed-use office/retail/parking facility, and for a similar conversion of the 880,000-square-foot Lit Brothers Department Store into a mixed-used office/retail facility. Both projects won National Trust Honor Awards as best in class and have contributed significantly to the resurgence of Center City Philadelphia

Brickstone applied its adaptive reuse expertise to a new strategic move into the hospitality industry when it redeveloped a 402,000-square-foot historic office building in Center City Philadelphia into a 500-room Courtyard Hotel by Marriott. The hotel features a 175-seat restaurant, a 160-seat bar lounge, and nearly 8,000 square feet of meeting space. The property, developed under a turnkey development contract with Marriott International, had a total project cost of approximately $70 million. Brickstone has developed seven other select service hotels in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts.
