The 36,000 square foot Arthaus, a property by Dranoff Properties designed by Philadelphia-native Eugene Kohn, will house 108 units, a greenhouse, and 4,200 square feet of ground floor retail space at Broad and Spruce streets.

Along with the greenhouse comes individual planting beds, a reflecting pool, outdoor dining, fire pit and a lawn and sun deck.

There will also be a separate dog run and pet spa.
