Great just expensive

Great location for restaurants, bars, and public transportation

The Griffin Review

We love living at The Griffin. The units themselves have all been renovated and have a very functional layout. The building is located in a prime location with easy access to restaurants and bars that are frequented by Wharton students. The amenity spaces are lovely and make for great hosting. In hindsight, we wish we had gone with a larger floorplan as our unit can be tight at times, and the cost of a larger unit was well worth it with a better layout, higher end appliances, and more luxurious finishes.

I love our building - units are very nicely finished. The rooms thesm

Expensive, but finished well with great amenities. Building and units are maintained very well, and the walls are thick so you don’t hear neighbors at all.

The Griffin offers fantastic amenities, the best apartment complex gym I have ever seen, quiet and spacious apartments, and top-notch concierge service.

Great location, nice management, terrible parking situation

While most Wharton students stay west of Broad, I'm thrilled that I looked beyond the typical Rittenhouse Square buildings. The Griffin, on the corner of Broad and Chestnut, is a brand new building that has amazing amenities and is part of a very lively neighborhood. The building itself is well managed and typically if there are any issues they are resolved quickly. The two bedroom floorplans are actually quite spacious, though they can be a little lacking in sunlight. The Griffin also has the nicest apartment gym I've ever seen. The free weights go above 50 lbs, there is a fully functional yoga room, and the machines are functional enough that I've been able to actually replace my gym membership. The rooftop is one of the nicest views in Philadelphia and it's actually pretty active on weekends. It's a great space to grab a few drinks with friends or host a larger group for a party. Lastly, being right on Broad and Chestnut makes the Griffin very public transit accessible. I'm able to take the MFL right to campus, and can pretty mcuh get to any part of downtown Philadelphia within a 15 minute commute.

I love it here. Awesome location, high end amenities, incredible views, and friendly young professional neighbors. While the Griffin isn't cheap, it's still a much better deal than comparable options near Rittenhouse and the Midtown Village neighborhood has a lot more going on. Highly recommend!
