Zoning Overlay for the Avenue of the Arts
The City of Philadelphia Zoning Ordinance has designated two Special
District Controls, also known as Zoning Overlays, that limit uses that
would normally be allowed in the C-Commercial land use classification.
These two overlays are relevant to any new development on the Avenue of
the Arts. Section 14-1607, Special Controls for the Center
City Commercial Area, focuses on the Center City area, however its boundaries
include the Avenue of the Arts South. Section 14-1620,
Avenue of the Arts North Special District Controls, is specifically related
to new development on Avenue of the Arts North.
Included below are links to tables summarizing Special District Controls,
Section 14-1607 and Section 14-1620. The tables include a summary of the
Philadelphia City Code, indicating boundaries, prohibited uses, façade
and signage controls. For complete details on the Special District Controls
and other zoning legislation, please visit the City of Philadelphia Code
