Good Choice for Philly!

Love my view, I face to the beautiful skyline of the east! Garage parking is nice, paid visitor parking available on-site and adjacent to the building. There's a 24 hour doorman and I feel safe in my apt. Very friendly and helpful staff. A shuttle to campus on rainy or cold mornings is a plus! And oh my goodness, the closet space is amazing!

Only negatives to my apt include noisy construction across the street (not under the control of my apt building), A/C / heaters that only have on and off functions (no thermostat), and the window shades barely keep any light out (have to purchase very long curtain rods to be installed by the staff). Also, you can only use command hooks (can't make holes in the wall) and you cannot decorate your front door or place a welcome mat outside per the contract.

Overall, I am very pleased with this unit!

Great apartment to live in for the location! Management is very responsive to any issues that come up. Only downside is there is a lot of construction noise in the area, so if you're trying to sleep during the day it can be challenging.

Shuttle to campus is a lifesaver

Perfect location for Penn grad students — 20 minutes walk to campus, minutes away for Rittenhouse bars and restaurants, 6 min walk to grocery store. Shuttle to campus is a game changer, especially in winter time.

Not too far from school

2400 is conveniently located, walkable to school and walkable to Rittenhouse square. The building is old, but more recently renovated units are good.

Overall One of the Best Options

My experience here has been good so far. For the price, space, and the fact that the units are renovated, I feel like you really can't do much better in Philly. My only complaints are that there's no in-unit laundry (although there are two of each W/D per floor) and apartments have window a/c and heat rather than central air (I haven't had any issues with temperature control thus far). You can find other places with in-unit W/D and central air, but you have to compromise on space, price, etc. There is also a shuttle to campus here which is very convenient. Otherwise it's about a 15 minute walk to the law school, which is also very manageable. As a side-note I just want to add that the construction outside can be kind of annoying. I checked reviews extensively when I was searching for apartments, and there weren't really any noise complaints for this building. However, now they're supposedly building a high rise next to us, and construction started right around the time I moved in. I just had bad luck with the timing. Hopefully by the time students move in next year, the construction will be mostly over with.

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.
Reviewed by Wharton MBA Student living at Brownstone
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
Reviewed by Penn Nursing Student living at The Riverloft Apartments
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
Reviewed by Penn SP2 Student living at Riverwest Condominiums
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!
Reviewed by Penn Carey Law Student living at 250 S 23rd St
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.
Reviewed by Penn Carey Law Student living at 2400 Chestnut Apartments
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.
Reviewed by Penn Resident living at Locust on the Park
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
Reviewed by Penn Med Student living at 2400 Chestnut Apartments
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.
