History and architectural features

[edit]

Built in 1909, this historic structure is an eight-story, nine-bay, reinforced concrete building with brick facing. It previously housed a dress trimmings company, lithographic printing company, and a warehouse.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1] It is a contributing property to the Callowhill Industrial Historic District.

Currently known as Beaux Arts Lofts, 1238 Callowhill Street also has the distinction of being the first building in this old industrial zone to become a residential living space, and in 1995 to be converted into a condominium, once again setting the pace for what was to become "The Loft District."[3]
