The Alexander at Vine Street is a 32-story residential building with 264 apartments and 13 townhouses in downtown Philadelphia. The structure features a spacious courtyard with landscaping and multiple outdoor terraces across the upper levels.
The building was completed in 2018 and was a major project that required blasting through solid rock to create three underground parking levels beneath the structure. This deep foundation work was necessary to establish the tall building on this urban site.

Visitors can access shared spaces including an indoor pool, fitness center, and demonstration kitchen for various activities. The landscaped courtyard with street lighting provides a pleasant outdoor area for spending time.
