As one of the nation’s largest cities, you’ll discover a variety of bustling businesses, such as the Philadelphia Stock Exchange, the country’s oldest stock exchange.

The University of Pennsylvania, the Philadelphia International Airport, and a multitude of historical landmarks and tourist attractions reside in this urban oasis. Admire the historic Liberty Bell, explore the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and take a trip to the famous Philadelphia Zoo. Enjoy the waterfront at Franklin D. Roosevelt Park, snap a picture at the Magic Gardens, or soak in the unique identities of the varied neighborhoods of the city.

Great place

Apartment has great ceiling heights and light and wonderful location.

7/3/25
Happy

I moved from the Adelphia house a couple blocks away and couldn’t be happier. My apartment is brand new and I love how much light it gets. I’m very happy with the amenities (a gym, a community room, and a small co-working space) and pleasantly surprised by how much safer and quieter a two block difference can make. Would recommend !!

6/11/25
beautiful apts

the staff was very welcoming and accommodating over the phone and for the tour. apartments were cute and the high ceilings made them feel bigger than other apartments i toured. the building is unrecognizable from when it was dorms for Uarts. lot of nostalgia from when i lived there, i always loved how close it was to center city. glad to see Jays is still there :)

6/5/25
A new gem

The units are newly renovated with beautiful kitchens, the rent is super affordable, and nothing beats this location -- really close to Broad St. but in its own residential area
