1818 Market Street is a 40-story skyscraper in downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The building was designed by the firm Ewing Cole Cherry Brott. Construction began on the property in 1972. The developer, Walters Associates, which also developed the Holiday Inn at 1800 Market, planned a construction budget of $50 million for the property. It was the tallest building erected in Philadelphia between the completion of City Hall in 1901 and the completion of One Liberty Place in 1987, during the period of the "gentlemen's agreement", the observation of an unofficial height restriction of the top of the hat of the statue of William Penn atop City Hall that stood for 86 years. The building is the eleventh-tallest in Philadelphia.
Location: 1818 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.
