209-15 FAIRMOUNT AVENUEPHILADELPHIA, PA 19123




Located in one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after neighborhoods, this nearly 10,000 SF mixed-use property has a rich and varied history. Originally constructed as a church with an adjoining lecture hall, this iconic building was transformed into the Pennsylvania Theatre (also known as the Coates Street Theatre) which was one of Philadelphia’s first four theatres. Since then, its versatile spaces have housed Cultural centers/clubs, auction houses, dance academies, a pipe organ factory, art studios and galleries, a variety of offices, and now a thriving childcare facility—each incarnation showcasing its ability to adapt to the needs of its community. Zoned CMX-2.5, the building is rich in character and retains remarkable historic elements including original ceiling murals and a repurposed stage. High ceilings (18–20 ft) and open floor plans on both levels as well as a 4,500 sq ft basement allow for endless possibilities. Additional adjacent 2,500 Sq ft vacant lot is available for sale separately, if combined, the two properties would offer an approximate 7,500 sq ft footprint of redevelopment opportunity.
