2400 CHESTNUT

Location is great for being in the Wharton bubble, and also close to school. Newly renovated apartments (renovated this year) provide a great value, although building common areas and amenities are old need upgrading (hallways, gym).

Get a unit that faces the river and you have amazing sunset views

Location, location, location!!! 2400 is just a short walk from Rittenhouse and probably the closest among all center city appartments to the Wharton School. Most units have recently been renovated so it's nice and comfy. I love it!

Great building

Overall a good building. Very helpful management.

Slightly over priced if you are not getting parking, reasonable parking I found at a building.

Also has a free shuttle to campus which can save $7-10 a day on cold or bad weather days

Building units are undergoing renovation and there is a lot of construction on the bridge nearby, so there's nearly constant construction noise any time of day and night.

Building renovation is slower than expected so if you move into an unrenovated unit with a promise of moving, you can factor in 2-3 months worth of delays.

The building front staff are very friendly and the place is safe. It is conveniently located ~25min pleasant walk to Wharton/UPenn and ~10min walk to Rittenhouse Square. Lots of Wharton students in the building.

Basic amenities - gym, small business center. No pool or lounge area.

It's a great place. I love the van that drives me to school every morning. Rent is way way too high, and I would move if I had time when my lease was up. It's really unfortunate they charge what they do. So many of my friends have significantly nicer places and pay a lot less. Their places are in some ways less convenient, but when I'd be saving $600-700 a month(!), it's no question I feel like I've made a bad call.

2400 Chestnut St is conveniently located close to campus, 30th st station, and downtown festivities. It's also super easy to hop on the highway by car. The building also offers a free shuttle to campus on weekdays.

Most units are being renovated which has been pushing up the prices quite a bit. Had I been forced to move into a renovated unit, I would have moved out of the building (due to budgetary constraints). The new units are beaauttiiffullll, but for the new rent price, you can get better amenities in other buildings in the city (i.e. a nice gym, in unit laundry, etc.). Of note, the new building management is not as responsive as they used to be. For instance, I had flooding in my kitchen which was not addressed for multiple days. And the cable service has been disconnected in the building for a couple of months, though leasing agreements state that this amenity is included in the cost of rent.

Overall, however, I've had a good experience in the building. It's been a staple part of my Philly and medical school experience.

Been living here for 2 years while at Penn Law. Very solid building--close enough to the law school but also gives you space. Management is very responsive. Only complaints are sometimes there is street or apt construction which is very loud at inconvenient times (but not often)

You are definitely paying for convenience at this apartment. Being right between school and center city has its perks. They are currently renovating units, so if you have an old apartment...it's clean (and cheaper) but not really "nice." The new units are great. There are no pest problems at all, which is a major plus.

There is a shuttle that runs every weekday morning which is excellent when it is really cold out or raining.
