Girard Street Green Project Details
Offered at Girard Street Green are 10 rowhouse-style structures, each housing two condos with 2-story, 2 bedroom 2.5 bath floor plans. Six of the new lots face Girard Street and four face Sherman Avenue. Fifteen compact parking spaces are available for purchase, to be accessed from the public alley. The parking spaces are grouped on the west side of the project. Shared outdoor spaces include BBQ grills, seating and a private dog run. The project replaces a one-story garage, alleyway and two-story structure used most recently as headquarters for Foote Plumbing & Heating company, and surface parking. Existing buildings were razed to make way for the new development. The property’s history includes a number of commercial and industrial uses, including as a gas station. This requires developers to remediate petroleum contamination by over-digging 10 to 12 feet in some locations of the site and bring in clean fill.
