We present to you The House of Mirrors and Mosaics!
This is the previous home of the great Isiah Zagar, an award-winning mosaic mural artist whose work can be found on more than 200 public walls throughout the city of Philadelphia and around the world.

Most notably, creator of Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens (PMG). An immersive mixed media art environment that is completely covered with mosaics, handmade tiles, bottles, bicycle wheels, mirror, and more!

Description

The space itself is a work of art – literally. From inside to outside it is covered with different styles of artwork. It is a 2 story building that you will have all to yourself. You will enter the stairs pictured to the (first floor) which has a huge sectional couch, monster size bean bag, zen den, floating chair, 55 inch TV, Disco ball, LED lighting, and plants from wall to wall! Here you will also find the kitchen with a custom pine built bar next to a relaxing dining room table that overlooks the amazing and unique artwork of Isiah Zagar. Washer and Dryer also found in a room connected to the kitchen.

The second floor in the sleeping quarters. There is a spacious loft with 4 beds located in a central location along with a large lounge couch. A 55 inch TV, office desk, and plenty of storage space. The full bathroom covered in mirrors and mosaics separates the sleeping den with the master bedroom which is located at the end of the hall. We wanted to make a place that compliments the work of the Zagar’s which is inspired purely on good vibes and respect. Please respect the property as if it were your own! Bless!

Getting Around

This space is in the heart of the action for South Street!

South Street always buzzes with activity, whether on a Tuesday afternoon or a Friday night. Ethnically diverse restaurants, bars that keep the party going long after dessert and galleries and performance spaces help make South Street remain a vibrant and essential city destination.

Business people saunter down the block from nearby Washington Square West and Society Hill to mingle with their more Bohemian counterparts for lunch, visitors flock to the area to savor their first Philly cheesesteak at Jim’s, or a classic slice at Lorenzo’s, and residents shop for groceries, check out a show, or find a Mexican-influenced piece of art from the Eye’s Gallery.

Mirroring this diverse mix of fun-to-watch pedestrians, a wonderfully eclectic lineup of businesses that includes over 300 shops and more than 60 eateries, cafes and bars caters to the crowd. Most stores are independently owned and have similarly minded signage.

The area’s restaurants reflect the various ethnic flavors of several nearby neighborhoods, and several performance venues feature fringe theater and live music.

Over the past decade, the development of South Street’s east side has spread west of Broad Street, but the traditional definition of the district (depending on who you ask) spans up to 14 blocks: Front Street up to Broad Street.
