Lots of international guests come through that makes it logical for Chinatown for short-term rentals

Typically hotels lacks stoves and ovens.
They’re not the same silly goose

The design isn't too bad looking, although I would prefer that the 'towers' were symmetrical rather than two on one side and four on the other, but I'm weird like that. I'm not very enamored of the use of the building, but so it goes.

It looks like a steamer basket, which is pretty cool.

I like some decorative aspects of the design. Mainly the decorative cladding and the open concept 1st floor, but it’s not an overall exciting project. I realize not every building needs to make a statement or be my idea of a good use.

Stuff like this has been common on the West Coast for a while; everything except your bathroom and bedroom is shared. They aren't really meant for people to live in them full time; they are meant for people to purchase them and rent them out on Airbnb.
So yeah, it's a hotel.

Around $150 per month max in 1900 sqft. New construction much more energy efficient

Reply to comment by ragnaROCKER in Philly mayoral candidates are discussing gun violence tonight. Here are some key policies likely to come up by PhillyPanda
>could be on the "no trust" list.
It doesn't go that deep. The questioning lasts about 3-5 minutes and the defense attorney seems like they hadn't even looked at the case prior to the day. They'd speak with the accused for a minute or two before the judge starts.
Honestly, seems like the defense just churns thru them, then clocks out at the end of the shift. Almost like an assembly line working cases. There's no Law & Order and such to it, just a bunch of paperwork on their desk (ie. shuffling papers, 'Ok, which case is next? Hmmm, let's see what its about') Then just shouts out far fetched theories and possibilities. It was deflating.

>; they are meant for people to purchase them and rent them out on Airbnb.
Individuals will not purchase these units. The company that owns the building rents them out. It's targeted at temporarily relocated or visiting corporate workers.
