ALLENTOWN, Pa. – Standing 4-stories tall with around 260 apartments, construction of The Standard on North 6th Street in Allentown is moving forward after breaking ground last summer.<\/p>\n
City Center new-to-market director Tara Anthony gave 69 News a look inside.<\/p>\n
“Our one bed, one bath model just over 770 square feet. All the finishes you’ll see here are the same throughout the entire building and this apartment does have a full-size washer and dryer,” said Anthony.<\/p>\n
The building features two-bedroom and studio apartments too.<\/p>\n
“We actually have a majority of these in the building. What we did with this again is copy our most popular studio floor plan out of all the buildings we have and kind of brought it here. We see this rent so often, so we thought why not put this all over in here,” said Anthony.<\/p>\n
There are several amenities too.<\/p>\n
“We have a courtyard that is about 11,000 square feet. It will have a dog park, it will have bocce ball, fire pits, grills,” said Anthony.<\/p>\n
That is on top of a 24\/7 fitness center and resident lounge. A bridge will connect the building to the 6th and Linden parking deck. This marks City Center’s 15th building in Allentown.<\/p>\n
“We worked with the last 14 buildings to really kind of listen to what residents and prospects are looking for and then we used our best floor plans and best amenities and put them in this building,” said Anthony.<\/p>\n
Anthony said people are coming to the Standard from all over, including New York and New Jersey. Prices range from $1,350 to $1,900 a month.<\/p>\n
“We started pre-leasing just this week and we already have a few deposits,” said Anthony.<\/p>\n
Anthony said the Standard will have people of all ages who live here.<\/p>\n
The building is set to open in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ALLENTOWN, Pa. – Standing 4-stories tall with around 260 apartments, construction of The Standard on North 6th Street…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179678,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[214,119,121,120,232],"class_list":["post-179677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-allentown","tag-_homepage_top_stories","tag-allentown","tag-allentown-headlines","tag-allentown-news","tag-allentown-area"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179677"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179677\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
