The 13-story, 360-unit residential tower offers an unmatched amenity package including a second level pool and membership package at the on-site City Fitness 

Philadelphia (February 2, 2024) –National Real Estate Advisors, LLC (“National”) in partnership with Kushner Real Estate Group (“KRE”) announced that The Noble, the 13-story, 360-unit residential tower located at 200 Spring Garden, is officially open for leasing. The new premier residential tower – which integrates Philadelphia’s Northern Liberties and Old City neighborhoods – is slated to open in early spring 2024. The project was developed as a joint venture between National’s subsidiary, National Real Estate Development, LLC (“National Development”), and KRE with Hunter Roberts Construction Group as the general contractor.

“The Noble uniquely connects two of Philadelphia’s most sought-after neighborhoods to set a new standard for urban living,” said Peter Epstein, Senior Development Manager, National Real Estate Development. “On behalf of National Development and our incredible partners, we are thrilled to officially begin inviting residents to experience the extraordinary blend of thoughtful design and local inspiration that defines this corridor, connecting Northern Liberties and Old City. Our commitment to creating a vibrant community shines through in every detail of this project, from the innovative design concepts to the authentic local influences that shape its character.”

Residents of The Noble will enjoy a range of amenities including an on-site co-working lounge featuring live platescapes and robust art program by notable Philly artists, a connected bike room, and an amenity lounge and party room with direct access to an extensive exterior landscaped deck. Notably, as a part of the amenity package, all residents will have a membership to the on-site City Fitness, which boasts 24,000 square feet of gym space, a year-round heated 75-foot pool and a juice bar.

“Originating in the heart of Northern Liberties, City Fitness is delighted to introduce our latest cutting-edge facility to residents of The Noble and the surrounding neighborhood,” shared Ken Davies, City Fitness Founder and CEO. “This state-of-the-art new location is a showcase of our foundational principles – vibrant facilities with premium equipment, an inviting atmosphere, and elevated programming and personal training.  With offerings like our lap pool, Olympic lifting platforms, enhanced Thrive small group training, and advanced recovery treatment, City Fitness Northern Liberties will be a launchpad for personal enrichment.”

With building architecture by Handel Architects and interior design by MAJOR, residents will revel in modern architecture from the inside-out that takes inspiration from The Noble’s unique urban environment. When speaking to the interior design, Marc Kushner, Founder and Principal of MAJOR Architecture said, “The Noble brings the exterior character of Philadelphia into its interior by extending the building’s brick facades, designed by Handel Architects, throughout the lobby and amenity spaces, creating a unique extension of Phillys’ streets as we string spaces together with brick clad interiors and vibrant art.” Kushner added, “It is a perfect environment for anyone looking to take advantage of the city’s vibrant art and social scene.”

The unobstructed views of the Philadelphia skyline, Delaware Waterfront, and the Ben Franklin Bridge provide an unbeatable panoramic cityscape with ample outdoor viewing spaces including a landscaped deck with grill stations, dining areas, dog run, and over 10,000 square feet of green space, which will be adorned with public art in collaboration with Mural Arts Philadelphia.

The residential tower is managed by Greystar, a global leader in the investment, development, and management of rental housing properties.

“The Noble sets the bar high for residential offerings in Philadelphia,” said Anthony Calabrese, Director, Greystar. “Whether you want to stay at home and enjoy the property’s thoughtful design and extraordinary amenities, or venture into other parts of town, this new residential tower offers something for everyone.  With easy access to I-95, SEPTA, and the Delaware River Trail, residents can explore restaurants, museums, and parks throughout Philadelphia and the region – all within a short trip.”

The development team released new renderings of the L-shaped residential tower’s two staged model units overlooking the water with views of the Ben Franklin Bridge, and units overlooking the property’s exterior resident amenity deck with a view of the Philadelphia skyline.
