The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We're still moving in slowly, but everyone who has assisted us in our process has been amazing!

We're looking forward to our time here!

After six years living at The Girard and extolling its virtues (amazing skyline, location, quality finishes, professional staff, great closets, fine amenities) I find myself recuperating from a planned surgery and an accident that put me out of commission for months during the healing process. It took this horrid confluence of incidents to showcase to me the wonderful accessibility of my unit including door sizes, flooring, space that allows a wheelchair to navigate, island that lets me prepare, cook, pivot and serve with minimal movement: a winner in all respects!
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for letting us know about your experience with us here at The Girard Apartments. 100% satisfaction is our goal!

It’s been fine besides the fire alarms which have been cut down. The grills need to be maintained better by management. 0/4 grills work for over a month last summer
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
Thanks for taking the time to give us this feedback! We appreciate you. All of our grills are currently operational, but 2/4 do have issues with their igniters. Due to this, we have actually ordered two brand new grills that will be arriving and installed before the end of March. In the meantime, if you would like to use one of the grills with an igniter issue, please stop by the front desk or the leasing office for assistance with lighting the flame. Feel free to give us a call with any other questions! We're always happy to help. Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
Hello, Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that your overall experience has been positive. We apologize for the fire alarm issues you experienced and are pleased to know they've been resolved. Regarding the grills, we're happy to inform you that all grills are currently operational, and we have plans to replace two of them before summer to ensure a better experience moving forward. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and are committed to maintaining them properly. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts with us! Best wishes, The Girard Apartments
Living here is great! Amazing amenities and great front desk staff. I would say the only flaw is how the sun gets blocked by buildings so pool time for me ends around 1pm. There are only 6 pool lounge chairs as well as 2 couches so there’s very limited room.
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
Awww, thanks for the great review! We really appreciate your kind words about The Girard Apartments! Apologies that we can't do too much about the sun blockages with the buildings surrounding us, but I can confirm we have more outdoor seating available for you! By the pool alone, we have 8 lounge chairs, 2 couches, and a table with 4 chairs. Additionally, the fire pit area, just on the other side of the pool entry fence, has 4 additional couches available for use at any time. Feel free to use any of the available seating, but do remember not to leave any personal items unattended for longer than 30 minutes at a time. Thanks again for recommending The Girard Apartments! Hope you have an amazing day. Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments
Living at the girard is the best experience. The apartments are a good size and everyone is friendly. The pool is heated all year round, it has been great

Ameen’s is hands down the loveliest and most helpful in the building. She brings warmth and joy! Also, the other team members - Frank, Alonso, and Jasmine - make the building feel like a welcoming home!
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
So good to hear from you! Thanks for letting us know. Have a great day! Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments
Nice building. Friendly staff. Apartment is spacious with a lot of light from the huge windows. The elevators have been better recently, but when they are broken it takes a while for the others to come to your floor. Fire alarms go off a lot and are loud. Amenities are very nice, but they have not really put much effort into updating some of the furniture over the years. There have been a few upgrades, but not enough to justify the sharp increase in rent I have been paying since moving in. A lot of the stores (Wawa) that were on the block of this building and The Ludlow have closed, and the vacant spots haven't opened anything new except a pizza place. So the surrounding area feels a little dead. Ultimately, it has been a good experience but the price is now too high for what you get in return.

Hi - your satisfaction is our top priority. Let us know what we can do to help! Our team makes it their mission to deliver an excellent experience. We're so glad we delivered during your visit, but we'd love to know how we can improve. Let us know what changes you would like to see and we can do our best to accommodate. Unfortunately, the commercial spaces on street level are not managed by Greystar, but we're always striving to improve our interiors. Feel free to reach out to us at any time by contacting us at thegirardrsm@greystar.com. Thanks again for letting us know how we did! We'll be sure to share your feedback with the team, and we look forward to helping again in the future. Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments
Great building. Can’t say the same about those who manage it. Help is hard to find when you need it, and when you do manage to find it you have to fight for it. Always made to feel like building errors are the residents fault and an inconvenience for the leasing office. Feeling trapped in my lease. So yeah, don’t recommend long term stays here.
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
It's truly upsetting to hear that you didn't receive the top-notch service we strive to provide. I'm going to talk to the team here at The Girard Apartments to see how we can improve for next time. Thanks again for taking time to let us know how we can improve. Your feedback matters, and we hope you'll consider us again in the future. All the best to you. Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments
I have lived here for about 3 years and has enjoyed how accessible it is to explore different areas of Philly with such ease! My fellow neighbors are super nice and respectful, and I can’t complain

Great place to live. Quiet, comfortable, good service. Wonderful location in the middle of the city. Had hoped for more opportunities to meet other tenants, but the ones we have attended have been a little lame.

Love the building (great heat and AC, staff, location, views, maintenance staff, Roost staff), hate the frequent fire alarms, usually attributable to the retail tenants on ground level. As a whole, best place I've lived in Center City!

Area is central to all of center city and is so accessible via all modes of transportation to get you anywhere! Would prefer if there is more space for pets to roam around on the amenities floor as the doggy relief area is quite small and not the cleanest.
Property Manager at The Girard, Responded To This Review
Hi there - thanks so much for the high star rating, we really appreciate the feedback! We're sorry to hear that you are less than satisfied with our available space that pets are allowed to roam freely without a leash. While we are a pet friendly community, we most also keep the safety and comfort of non-pet-owning residents as well. You are always welcome to roam with your leashed pet on our Western Outdoor Terrace and in our indoor lounges; but they can only relieve themselves inside of the Community Dog Park. So you are aware, pets are not permitted on the Eastern Terrace, with the pool or fire pits, unless they are certified service animals registered with the community. We do apologize for any lack of cleanliness inside the Dog Park, but rest assured that our onsite cleaning team services the park 3 times a day, along with hosing down by our automated sprinkler system. Our office team is also working diligently to identify and fine any residents not picking up after their pets. If you notice pet waste left by other residents, please inform the nearest community staff member, so they my begin the cleaning and investigation process. Thank you again for taking the time to let us know about your experience. If there is anything else you would like to share, or if you would like to speak directly with a member of the management team, please contact us at thegirardrsm@greystar.com. Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments

Great place to live. Nice finishes in apartments. Terrific maintenance staff. Wish there was drop off space at front door. No easy way to wait inside for Uber.

You're the best! We really appreciate the positive review. Thanks so much for taking the time to give us this feedback. We'll pass along your comments to our maintenance team and let them know they did a terrific job! Sorry to hear that you've had trouble with Uber drop offs in the past. If you are awaiting pick up or drop off from a rideshare service, you are always welcome to wait in the lobby which has floor to ceiling windows to provide you with a full view of Ludlow St.. If you are awaiting delivery from any food or package service, our 24-hour front desk concierge team is always available and has several options for receiving, storing, and notifying you of any incoming deliveries. There is even refrigerated storage in the front desk package room for any food deliveries that cannot be picked up immediately. It's our pleasure to assist! Let us know if anything else comes up, and take care. Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments

The Girard is a very nice and modern building in the heart of Philadelphia. The units are very comfortable with good lighting. The front desk staff is very nice and always present. They put in a lot of effort to set up events throughout the year. Maintenance staff is very prompt, friendly, and effective. The pool and outdoor space is nice though could use some more covered areas as well as more routine cleaning of the grills and furniture. The indoor common spaces are always clean which is more consistent than the outdoor spaces. Floors 4-7 are long-stay hotel rooms so I think the building could put more effort into the common spaces since there are always new people coming in and out using all the amenities. The surrounding East Market area has a lot of security presence. The area itself has a good amount of crime and disturbances so having security around helps. Unfortunately the Wawa connected to the building and some attached storefronts have closed. Hopefully there will be more opening soon to liven up the immediate surrounding area. It's in a little bit of a dead zone in Center City, thought he building is very nice itself. The elevators and fire alarms are things that need to be consistently fixed. Elevators are always broken but it's better than it was 2-3 years ago. The fire alarms go off a lot and constantly beep while telling you to stay in the apartment. I think a one time warning at the start and end of a fire is fine if it's just telling you to remain in your unit. If you need to leave then a continuous alarm makes more sense. Overall the building itself is very in a busy part of Philly that is rougher than the other side of Broad St in Rittenhouse square.

Thanks so much for taking the time to give us this feedback! We appreciate you. We will address your comments with our recently expanded cleaning team, and have any issues resolved. We are currently working on additions to the third floor amenities; please keep an eye out for the opening of our new business center in early summer this year. Also, check out our new neighbor, Mulherin's Italian Restaurant, opening this month! If you're looking for additional shopping options, the Philadelphia Fashion District Mall is always bringing in new businesses and promotions; and is conveniently only steps away from our community. We're always here for you! If you ever need anything, just give us a call or stop by. Have an awesome day! Best Wishes, The Girard Apartments
