2116 Chestnut: Renderings, Floorplans, Restricted Dog Breeds
In November 2012, the Chicago-based John Buck Company topped off its first Philadelphia project: the 34-story rental building at 2116 Chestnut, once the site of a Louis Magaziner building. The building–which is now accepting online applications–will offer studios, 1- and 2-bedrooms, along with indoor parking, a dog run, car share, bike storage and other highly desirable amenities. Studios will start at $1,700 per month and 1 bedrooms at $1,950 per month.

Interestingly, the building, which is pet-friendly (there’s a dog run, after all), has a fairly large list of restricted dog breeds. Most are unsurprising, particularly “Wolf.” There is an 80 lb. weight limit and 36-inch height limit when the dog is fully grown. Not only are the following dogs not allowed to live at 2116 Chestnut, they’re not allowed to visit. Poor Australian Fido!
Many buildings surely have similar policies. This is just an interesting example of the way that new buildings are reacting to an increasing number of aggressive breeds and unpleasant public incidences.
