U.S. Development is partnering with market-leading real estate agents to lead the successful lease-up of its brand-new luxury apartment community Frankford Grand located in the heart of Philadelphia’s Fishtown neighborhood.
The 107-unit Frankford Grand is elevating the standard of living in one of Philadelphia’s most dynamic and fastest-growing neighborhoods. It blends upscale design, top-tier amenities and urban convenience. Onesti and Gambardella are already driving substantial activity through creative programming and activations at the community.
“Frankford Grand represents a fusion of luxury and lifestyle that we know Philadelphians are seeking,” Onesti said. “We are thrilled to bring the vision of U.S. Development to life in Fishtown and welcome prospective tenants to experience it firsthand.”
A Philadelphia native, Onesti has been a top-selling Realtor since 2000, specializing in luxury new construction and large-scale, high-end developments. His career production exceeds $4 billion, as Onesti and his team have cultivated a reputation for delivering superior results.
Gambardella is a distinguished real estate professional with extensive experience in luxury new development sales and multifamily leasing. At 19, she was the youngest graduate in her Temple University class, earning a degree in Corporate Finance and Real Estate to set the foundation for her prolific real estate career. With The Mike McCann Team, Gambardella plays a pivotal role in representing some of the most prominent multifamily and residential new construction developments across Philadelphia and South Jersey.
In their marketing campaign, Onesti and Gambardella leverage Frankford Grand’s unmatched amenity offering to host compelling events for current and prospective tenants. Frankford Grand’s expansive roof deck offers panoramic views of Center City, complete with an outdoor kitchen, dining spaces and fire pits for an exceptional social and leisure experience above of the bustling streets of Fishtown. The building’s ground level features a full-size gym and private courtyard garden with expansive dog park.
Onesti and Gambardella are partnering with local vendors, musicians and entertainers to regularly activate the outdoor areas and showcase Frankford Grand’s vibrant lifestyle.
Located at 1122 Frankford Ave. – the gateway to the Heart of Fishtown, Frankford Grand also includes 15,000 square feet of retail space spanning two floors. The 107 apartments include a mix of 50 studios, 32 one-bedrooms and 25 two-bedrooms.
Just northeast of Philadelphia’s Center City, Fishtown is a neighborhood with a working-class history that today attracts the cutting edge in culinary, art and music trends. In a nod to Fishtown’s history, character and present-day appeal, Frankford Grand’s design combines a brick façade and black loft-style windows, fusing industrial heritage with modern touches.
The property features two prominent retail spaces constructed to accommodate a variety of uses including neighborhood retail, restaurant, bar or entertainment. Additionally, each of the retail spaces has generous exclusive outdoor patio areas for additional customer seating. The developer expects to attract best-in-class operators to join the ever-growing and dynamic Fishtown market with a Mediterranean Concept and specialized bakery in the works for the location bringing in best in class operators.
