1601 S 13TH STREET, Philadelphia, PA 19148

Bring your vision. There are many possibilities. This church presents a wonderful opportunity in the evolving, redevelopment community of South Philadelphia. The exterior is constructed with radially laid bricks. The architectural design seems to have been affected by early Norman architecture-relatively small wooden entry doors and windows with their round heads that are reminiscent of some Romanesque English churches. The tall bell tower gives distinct character to the structure. There are 3-different style roof systems: slate roof, flat roof and metal tower roof. The first floor consists of a main sanctuary, chapel office vestibule and two stairways leading to the balcony area. Outlining the sanctuary are many large, colorful stained-glass windows, vaulted dome and wooden ceilings, baptismal pool and choir section with organ and piano. The sanctuary seats over 300. The chapel is large with a raised stage and many display cases. Off the chapel is a children’s Sunday school area that leads to an outdoor playground. The upper level contains large offices, conference rooms, bathrooms, classrooms and a balcony overlooking the sanctuary. The basement has a large open area that was used as the pre-kindergarten school and industrialized kitchen along with many storage rooms. The church is being sold in “as-is” and “where-is” condition and is listed in the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places.
