2400 Chestnut Associates

As a Penn Law student, I love living at 2400 Chestnut because of the strategic location and short commute to campus. I can get to/from class in 15 minutes walking and they also provide a shuttle bus in the morning. The apartment is spacious and recently renovated, and the management was been very responsive to any maintenance request/issue I've had. The gym, study rooms, and package room are also great amenities. I feel very safe here because we have a doorman at the front desk 24/7 and need to scan in to access the elevators.

One minor downside is that there is no in-unit laundry. Each floor has a laundry room with two washers/driers. On occasion, one of the three elevators will be down for maintenance, so it can take a bit longer to get up/down.

Highly Recommend

The apartment is amazing. It is in the best location- close enough to campus (about 15 minutes walking) but far enough that you have some distance. It is also in Center City where you have access to great shops and restaurants. It is also a few minutes away from 30th station and bus stops and transit stations.

Management in the building is fantastic, and if there are ever any maintenance problems, they are resolved immediately.

The only cons are it can be a noisy area because we are by the train tracks (especially at night with the freight trains- but if you close your windows all the way it is usually fine). There are problems with the elevators at times, and you cannot take long showers as the hot water will run out.

The views from the building are amazing. Also there is a lounge, gym, and secure package room for mail. The coincerege are all amazing and also make us feel safe.

Great location in between campus and rittenhouse.

Location and views make this extremely ideal, free printing is essential for law students. Also appreciate spaciousness of apartments and lots of other grad students in the building.

Value of amenities relative to price is lacking slightly, however the free shuttle to campus and walking proximity makes the cost worth it. Management also runs this place well.

This is a great modern building in an excellent location right next to the Schuykill river, walking distance to the law school and Rittenhouse. Great amenities and a nice recently-renovated gym.

extremely friendly and welcoming staff; there are 3 elevators and one has been broken since i moved in early august but other than that no complaints!

As a former tenant of 2400 Chestnut, I cannot recommend the building enough.

I initially walked in for a tour with no expectations, as I had 2 other tours later that day. I never made it to those other tours and found my new home of two years in this building, and I had a great experience throughout my time living there. The building is in close proximity to everything I was looking for in Philadelphia, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and some great independent local stores. Rosey's Tacos, and 1TPL are two of my favorites, and I'll be looking for an excuse to visit both since I now live outside the city.

2400 Chestnut has a 24 hour concierge, so there is always a familiar face any hour of the day. I've seen a few families in the building as well, and at no point did I feel unsafe in the building.

There was some construction noise early on, which has since ended. The construction was for some AMAZING new amenities that have been added to building such as a brand-new HUGE gym and a really cool lounge with private study rooms and an enormous TV. There is a brand-new package and mail room as well.

My apartment was great. I had a one bedroom that looked brand new when I moved in. Any issues big or small were handled by management/maintenance as fast as reasonably possible. All of the staff in the building are very nice and make an effort to get to know you as a person which I also appreciated.

Great location, great building, ran by great people. If you're on the fence, book a tour and see for yourself.

We love 2400 Chestnut! There is a tight-knit community and very friendly staff and building manager. It's amazingly well-situated near the Schuyllkill river trail, many bus routes, Rittenhouse Square shops/restaurants, and a short walk from Penn/hospital campus.

Great management, location and amenable for a competitive rent

I’ve had a great experience living at 2400 Chestnut. The apartments are newly renovated with a convenient attached parking garage and brand new relatively comprehensive workout space. The staff are incredibly nice and friendly. The daily shuttle to university city is incredibly convenient, often driving directly to the medical campus in the early morning for medical professionals. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else

I've greatly enjoyed living at 2400 - the management is very responsive and quick to take any needed action. The location of the building is unbeatable and feels very safe.

Management is very responsive and staff are kind. Daily shuttle to the hospital on weekdays is a godsend. Only drawback is shared laundry (each floor has 2 pairs of washer and dryer), although it’s free.

Have been in this apartment building for all three years of residency, and plan to stay into fellowship as well. Friendly staff, clean apartment building, brand new gym, free shuttle that takes you to the hospital, etc. Only a 5 minute walk to the train station, 2 minutes walk to the beautiful Schuylkill River trail to walk/bike/run on, and 15-20 minute walk to CHOP.

2400 Chestnut is a wonderful apartment for CHOP residents. It is a close walk to the hospital and also has a shuttle service. Our amenities, including a new gym and work spaces, are great. The building has a good package service and the staff at the front desk are amazing. Parking is very reasonably priced and probably the lowest of any building in the area.
