The Met was built in 1908, a project of Oscar Hammerstein. It had not been used continuously as a concert venue during it's 110 years and had fallen into disrepair. It's been restored to its original glory and is once again a real gem on North Broad Street. It has the largest stage and the largest seating capacity (3300) of any hall in Philly and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Heid Lofts
323 N. 13th Street
Developer PRDC Properties is redeveloping the nearly century-old, one-time Frank P. Heid & Co. hat factory into a 96-unit luxury apartment building that will include a ground-floor restaurant, rooftop amenity space with a gym, outdoor living area and dog park. Atrium Design Group is the architect and M2 Builders, LLC is the general contractor.
For much of the late-19th and early-20th centuries, North Broad Street was the fashionable address of wealthy industrialists and a center of culture and nightlife. Now Philadelphia's grand north-south street is once again being transformed, with the restoration and reuse of some of its landmark structures, along with a new generation of high-profile buildings.
Spend an afternoon exploring the "new" North Broad Street in a self-guided tour sponsored by BIA of Philadelphia and join us for a concluding happy hour hosted by Hanover North Broad Street.

The Packard Motor Car Building
317 N. Broad Street
Originally designed by architect Albert Kahn of Detroit, the lobby of the 1910 building was a showroom for Packard automobiles. Manufacturing and assembly took place upstairs. The building was redeveloped as apartments in the 1980s by Historic Landmarks for Living. It was acquired by J. A. Reinhold Asset Management Inc. in 2006 and is part of The Reinhold Residential Portfolio. There are 151 apartments from studios up to two-bedroom units with dens. In December 2017, Reinhold completed a renovation and reconfiguration of amenity spaces in the lobby designed by DAS Architecture Inc.
