City Center Residential said Tuesday that it is beginning to lease apartments for The Standard in downtown Allentown.
Located at 111 N. Sixth St., the four-story building is scheduled to open in June. It is City Center’s 15th apartment building downtown.
The property was once home to The Morning Call’s office, which occupied the space for roughly a century until 2020. City Center bought the property from Tribune Media in 2016 for $8.5 million.
“The Standard was designed to be attainably priced by offering residents efficient spaces without sacrificing modern comfort or amenities,” said Tara Anthony, director of City Center Residential. “Even as we extend our residential offerings north, The Standard’s downtown location will place residents in walking distance of everything that makes Allentown vibrant.”
The Standard has 257 apartments, including studio, one-bedroom and two-bedrooms, with vinyl wood-plank flooring, washers and dryers, open kitchens and stainless-steel appliances.
According to the building’s website, rents are $1,350 to $2,015 per month.
The Standard is a pet-friendly building with an attached parking garage and a dog park. Amenities include a pet spa, a 24/7 fitness center, a courtyard with fire pits, and buildingwide Wi-Fi.
