2400 Chestnut

I have really enjoyed living here. It is the perfect location between Center City and University City. It has great parking rates, which is a large part of why we chose to live here. I have no complaints about the building. It is a great value as well. There are a lot of graduate students and young professionals in the building. I would recommend it!

Gets the job done

2400 is a good apartment at a good cost. The units are a little outdated but clean and functional. You get a lot of space and closet space for how much you pay, and management is very good and attentive. The gym isn't bad (8-9 cardio machines, bench, free weights, and 4-5 weight machines. Free shuttle to campus is great for cold or rainy days, but otherwise the walk isn't bad at all. Close to 30th st station, very close to 2401. Nice views as well.

Fine for the price given the location

Great location, easy to walk to campus. Maintenance is great and fixes most things on the day you request something. Building isn't the nicest or the newest but is appropriately priced. Extremely quiet--really no street noise or noise inside the apartment.

Great apartment!

They are redoing the apartments but if you are looking for a cheap comfortable place this is great. There are temperature control issues but the refurnishing is going to fix those problems.

Value for money

This building offers great value for money.
1. Location - close to 2401, closer to campus, complimentary campus shuttle on weekday mornings
2. Gym in the basement, one "study" room on the first floor

Negatives:
1. Different units are in different stages of renovation - some units have been renovated, others haven't. The ones that haven't been renovated have old, grotty carpets. The bathrooms are tiny.
2. This is generally an older building, with older appliances, and older fittings. The apartments are not as "nice" as the newer buildings in Center City (2116 Chestnut, 1919 Market).
3. The gym is tiny, and only has a few machines.
4. No in-unit laundry (Each floor has a laundry room with 2 washers and 2 dryers). But the laundry machines are free to use, and I have never had to wait to find a free machine.

Great until recently

Really liked the apartment the first year. Management is generally responsive and the staff are very nice. The location is good as it's part way between school and Rittenhouse square and very close to the highway. Parking is also relatively cheap at $130 per month. On the down side, there are limited food options close by. Also, this past year, they have been renovating the apartment next door, which means loud drilling sounds on weekday mornings. However, this should hopefully not be an issue in the future.

Great for Penn Grads

Best value in Center City. We get a lot of space for what we pay. While there aren't a ton of amenities that come with it, there is a solid gym and a shuttle to campus, and management is fantastic.

Easy and great for students

Lots of medical students and residents in this building. There is morning shuttle to UPenn's campus that runs every 20 minutes. There's also a 24 hour fitness room, doorman. The windows were renovated a couple years ago and over all in pretty good condition. Great value for this really easy to live in building.

Great place

So close to campus! Love the shuttle that takes you to the University of Pennsylvania campus every day. The management is nice and very responsive. I've always felt safe here, and I hope to continue living here for many more years! 2400 Chestnut is great!

About Fitler Square

Situated right along the Schuylkill River, Fitler Square is a quaint neighborhood full of old-school Philadelphia charm. It's part of a larger area more commonly referred to as 'Schuylkill' that's also comprised of Devil's Pocket and Grays Ferry. Renters rave about this area for the nearby parks and...

Fitler Square Reviews

294 reviews
Fitler Square is really cute and homey. It's around a lot of other medical students, so it's a good social area and has an easy commute to school. It's also great if you like running because it's right off the trail on the river. Food is good but a bit homogenous (compared to West Philly especially.
Locust and spruce feel a lot safer than market or chestnut at night. Very residential streets with beautiful brownstones. Also close to dog park and the river walkway. About 10min walk from the popular buildings and 25min walk to huntsman
good place for people new to the city! close to both Penn and a lot of stuff downtown. I never lived in Philly beforehand, and definitely recommend this location
Love the neighborhood! If you're interested in being close to the center of the city and being able to actively explore Philly (for a not extreme price) it was great! Also was easy to get to my school - University of Pennsylvania. 15-20 mins to get to school by transit; 30 mins walking.

That being said I did notice that most students lived on the side of the school!
The beautiful tree-filled neighborhood is full of families, dogs, and students - it is safe, full of great restaurants, and boasts an equally quick walk to both University City and downtown attractions. The immediate access to the Schuylkill River Trail also can't be beat. While we lack apartment amenities, we love living in a historical brownstone that has charm and character. This is an area where you can live as a student and stay for another 20 years after that.
Great neighborhood, though expensive for Philly. If you're a Penn grad student who wants to be near campus but not on campus, it's ideal for distance from school and the Rittenhouse area. Lots of parks and residents are friendly.
There are residents without housing in the neighborhood. They're good people and new residents should be respectful of them and their belongings.
The neighborhood is very residential. Not a ton of bars/restaurants which can be annoying if you just want to pick up food after a busy day, but it's right near the park and Skukyhill river trail which is great for exercising and getting outdoors. Close to Trader Joe's and South Street market which is convenient
Center City is a fantastic area. I live on the northern side of it, which is the more financial/industrial/apartment building side. I live 2 blocks from a busy Trader Joe's and inches away from tons of great restaurants, corner stores, and shops. It's close to Rittenhouse Square, a swanky square block with a tiny park in the middle, as well as the Schuylkill River trail (great for running and biking) and the Art Museum area. Multiple major bus lines slice through this neighborhood, making it quite easy to get anywhere when you don't want to walk or bike.
