Great place to live!

I love my apartment and all the amenities. The building is well-maintained and the apartments have huge floor-to-ceiling windows for lots of natural light.

Great location and management

The apartment complex is within a short walking distance of UPenn's campus . Management is very friendly, helpful, and responsive. The amenities are also very modern.

expensive but very happy/great amenities

I have really enjoyed living here so far. Everyone is so nice and helpful. The team has helped me fix various things in my apartment that are not their obligation (e.g., refilling holes with spackle/painting over when I moved things on my walls, cleaning out vents, clearing out the drains, etc.). Apartments have central air, washer/dryers in unit, dishwashers and microwaves. The roof is gorgeous. I have not used the gym or common areas because of COVID but they look amazing. We also get free workout classes when it's not COVID, and I am very much looking forward to that. My apartment feels clean. I know my packages are safe. I know the building is secure. I live a 7 minute walk away from the Penn law school campus.

Overall excellent place to live

Doorman to accept packages/groceries/deliveries. Management is very responsive to any concerns or problems with the apartment(same day responses). Located in the middle of all 3 hospitals - you can walk to all 3 hospitals and clinic in less 15 minutes. Pet friendly with dog walkers that live in the building. Parking available. Not very close to Rittenhouse.

Like it a lot

I like the building a lot, but I have not been crazy about the management or my fellow residents. They are not always the most considerate to their neighbors.

Awesome building

The building is only a couple years old and the apartments are very nice. There's a common floor with a gym, study spaces, and theater room. If you live on one of the higher floors, there are great views. All the apartments have floor to ceiling windows, too, so tons of natural light. It's about a 7 minute walk to school. A shared Uber to Rittenhouse/Center City area is usually about $3.75.

Reviewed by Penn Med Student living at 503 South 41st St.
Gentrifying area of West Philly, given Penn's presence and expansion into the neighborhood. Easily walkable. Within several blocks of Clark Park, where there are lots of community events and family-friendly activities in addition to walking paths and dog park. Lots of cute shops and restaurants along Baltimore Ave plus great hole-in-the-wall spots if you want to explore a bit more.
Reviewed by Emily, Penn Law Student living at Arrive University City
The best thing about the neighborhood is that it is extremely close to the law school. There are some stores and restaurants, but it isn't vibrant. There are basically no liquor stores in university city. Proximity to school was most important to me, so I think it is a great place to live.
Reviewed by Penn Law Student living at Chestnut Hall
Perfect for the 1L experience-- I love being close to law school and surrounded by other students. Living so close to all of Penn's resources, with great food/drink options around, is awesome. Plus it is very easy to get into Center City on SEPTA.
Reviewed by Alex, University of Pennsylvania Student living at Hamilton Court
University City is a great college town. It provides everything you could want plus higher-end more modern options when it comes to restaurants and bars. Very walkable and safe
Reviewed by Penn Med Student living at Arrive University City
Not much to do, have to go to center city for most stuff but that’s fine for me as a med student cause most stuff is at the school.
Reviewed by Penn Law Student living at Arrive University City
Very close to the law school which is great but other areas of the city have better restaurants/coffee shops
Reviewed by Penn Resident living at 3737 Chestnut
Close to work and Penn's campus but not as close to center city/restaurants.
Reviewed by Penn Law Student living at 3601 Market
I'm glad I live in University City because I have such a short walk to school and can go home for lunch each day. I don't have time to do many fun activities in Center City anyway, so I don't regret not living there. Having said that, Center City definitely has more of an "adult" feel. Where I live in University City doesn't really feel like a neighborhood or community.
