Lovely, quieter Apt close to Rittenhouse Square
I used to live at One City and my new apartment at The Republic is dramatically quieter. It's also on the nicer side of center city. I love how close it is to Rittenhouse Square and restaurants. The drexel shuttle stop on 19th street isn't too far, and there are a variety of other public transit options nearby (ie Bus 21).

Good value
Not the most glamorous building but relatively good value for the price, especially given the location.

The Republic
I’ve lived in the republic for a year and a half and have enjoyed my experience. The management is responsive to maintenance requests and is proactive about notifying residents about work done in the building. There is also very limited noise transferred between apartments. I’ve never heard my neighbors.

Not too spacious but just enough for one person. Very central location. Average to low level gym. Free printing services which is a plus. Maintenance takes a while to respond to issues. No bug problem yet.

Great Apartment for the Price
I have not had any major issues since moving here. Management is a little slow but not terrible.

Cheap, large floor plans
Generally good experience - updated amenities, large floor plans, responsive management team. There was a change in management from Greystar to Sentinel last year with some hiccups (e.g., issues with hot water) that have now been resolved.

Maintenance issues
Spacious, updated units for cheap price given the great location. However, since new management has taken over, there have been constant maintenance issues (e.g., no hot water for extended periods of time).

Generally worth the price (at least for us!)
My wife and I have lived at the Republic with our 80 pound pup for over a year, and we just renewed our lease for another 12 months. We love the building's location, pet-friendly atmosphere, front desk staff, and our apartment's renovated fixtures. We live in a corner unit on the 19th floor, and the views and natural light are *incredible*. That said, it's very bright at night, so much so that I have to wear a sleep mask. The downsides of the building are 1) when the fire alarm goes off, you may have to descend lots of stairs, 2) the building is expensive relative to other options, though reasonably priced for the area, and 3) as an older building, water and other utility problems occur regularly. Also, the building recently came under new management that we're not fond of. They frequently fail to communicate before shutting off the water for maintenance (they do let you know, but usually after it's already off). We plan to move out at the end of the year to find something cheaper/in a quieter neighborhood (simply because our own preferences have changed), but we really have loved our time here.

Rittenhouse Square Reviews
Spruce Street in particular is great - it's a little south of the square, so is quieter/shielded from a lot of the traffic that the neighborhood gets, but it's not out of the way or far away. There's a Starbucks, a grocery store (Rittenhouse Market), and a few corner stores (Four Seasons and Food & Friends) within a 2-3 minute walk of my apartment.
