Pearl Properties

It's a quiet building but you can hear the street noise. I wish the windows were thicker. Management is okay. They always come when I call and take care of issues. I m sad to be leaving but would recommend this place to anyone. It has a cozy charm about it.

Living at The Terrace has been nothing short of amazing. The front desk and maintenance teams are so friendly and attentive, and the building amenities... to die for! I have my own balcony. Management hosts community events often! The front desk loves on my dog every time they see her! Most days it feels like a luxury retreat.

Amazing all around in Logan Square

The apartment itself is beautiful, with tall ceilings, a huge gym, and great staff and doormen, making it very safe. The location is great. Pearl is a good management company. But you really can't win with noise here. If you face the alley, you will be woken up by trash trucks coming and slamming dumpsters as early as 4 AM, sometimes for hours. According to the other reviews, noise is also an issue if you face Chestnut or 17th, as those streets are very busy. The windows are thin and very large, which initially seemed awesome, but they let in a ton of noise so that you can hear conversations multiple floors down. For the amount I pay, I could have gotten a much better deal somewhere I could actually sleep.

Good management, amenities and in a good location

1700 Chestnut is fantastic. The building is beautiful, I've seen zero bugs in a year and a half, the view is great, the gym and study space are excellent, and the package system is reliable. The location is perfect as well. The only downsides are the street noise (I can hear loud conversations on the street from my 8th floor apartment) and the price.

Amazing spot in Rittenhouse!

Best building

I love living in the beacon, the apartment has big windows and great modern finishings, and the maintenance team is highly responsive. It’s also easy to get to class because it’s in front of the bus stop on walnut. I think it’s better value than some of the bigger buildings like 2040, and it still has about 20 first year Wharton students living in it.

Great building

The studio is small, the building used to be a hotel and the rooms were refurnished. So that could be an issue if you’re not living alone. The administration is very good though and very responsive

Building is well kept, front desk is attentive and watches out for safety, maintenance is highly responsive, easy mail/package system. Pearl Properties also organizes various events that are fun for grad students around the beginning and end of the school year. Half a block from the 17th & Walnut bus stop that goes right to Huntsman.

very nice amenities, huge gym, location is around good food. doormen are great. it is very secure. appliances are all in-unit and modern. my apt doesn't have sunlight but some do.

Good value for money

The rooms are small, but everything works and management are efficient. it's a shame not many wharton people live here.
