Description

Luxury top of the line apartments available at St. Johns Lofts, located at 1217 N Hancock St, is the renovation and reuse of the Hancock St Johns Church, originally constructed in 1855. Located at the border between Fishtown & Northern Liberties. With a walk score of 96/100 and just steps to transit at Front St, Frankford Ave, Girard Ave, and N 2nd St, this location is ideal for the young professional or empty nester who wants to take full advantage of everything these neighborhoods and the rest of the city have to offer.
St Johns Lofts boasts many beautifully preserved historic architectural details mingled with the complete conversion of the church into 12 amazing new luxury apartments. The land where the church sits was purchased in 1855 from a descendant of John Adams and once hosted Anna Marie Jarvis, the founder of Mother's Day. A stunning work of stained glass, much of which we have preserved, was dedicated to her memory and placed in the front of the church and will grace the common areas within the building.
This building takes luxury, history and convenience to the next level; it is a must see.

What Locals Say about Olde Kensington

    "Some people seem to pick up their dog’s poop. But, then again, some people seem not to pick up their dog’s poop. These are the two options that I have seen in this community regarding dogs and their poop and the owners picking up after them."

    "Nice restaurants and bars, up and coming. Community feel. Pretty safe. Nice parks. Usually there is parking on most steers. Lots of places to walk - decently clean but there is sidewalk trash. I have enjoyed living here. A nice little pocket of the city. "

    "Before we were invaded by all this new construction and new people this neighborhood was quiet it was parking everywhere and it never took more than 5 mins to get from point A to point B. If you love living in a “refurbished neighborhood” where they are taking over and making our own neighborhood unrecognizable loud dogs everywhere and pooping in front of your house and the owner not cleaning up behind their pet or neighbors having their trash everywhere than this is the neighborhood for you "

    "This area has it all -- cool restaurants and cafes like LaColombe, Frankford Hall, Reanimator, etc., easy parking, walkable to Super Fresh and the Piazza, easy access to Girard Ave. trolley, Market-Frankford el, and several bus routes. You would think residents, old and new, would treat their investments here with pride. Unfortunately, most residents care little about the curb appeal of their homes. Trash and other debris line the sidewalks and gutters. Leaves pile up and are never picked up. Weeds are allowed to grow knee-high in summer. Residents allow circulars to pile up on their stoops and simply step over them. Residents put out recycling carelessly, allowing it to spill or be wind-strewn into the streets. And no one seems to care. Until this attitude changes this area will never be considered "nice.""
