Acting as a gateway to Conshohocken, SORA West is a 3.6-acre project outside of Philadelphia that will have a different feel in the area once completed.
With two components — a 127-key hotel under the Hilton brand, and a fully-leased office building, the project will offer much-needed facilities in the area. Initially the developer aimed to build a 165-room hotel but it was scaled back.
What’s on the Inside of SORA West?
On the inside of the hotel at SORA West patrons will pass through the hotel to the restored firehouse restaurant via a second floor connection for a unique indoor-outdoor experience. The outdoor terrace will be about 650sf while the interior area will be 1,294sf.
SORA West Outdoor Structures
Beyond the terrace at SORA West, the area is surrounded by key public transit networks as well as trains and buses for easy access.
To accommodate commuters and patrons, there will be a 1,500-space parking structure.
Funding
As of January, the project was awarded $1 million from Pennsylvania through the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program. This award is given to projects that foster historical, cultural, and economic improvements.
