Really good rent for the area, and everything is nearby.

Brand new apartment building with one of the best locations in Philadelphia. Highly recommended.

Nice amenity space. Great deal for one bed with walk-in closet and W/D in unit. Chestnut Street is fairly loud but a box fan works like a charm at night.

The best apartment in Philly for Wharton MBA students.

The apartment is small but everything is new and feels nice. You do get a lot of street noise if you are on the side of the building facing 17th. Also, the window blinds are a bit see through, so privacy is not great because there is a hotel facing you. The amenities are great and include 1) a good sized gym with new equipment, 2) a theatre room with large couch, 3) a common room with pool table, TV, Kitchen, and large dining table, and 4) a study room. The front desk attendants are excellent. I am happy with the apartment/location. You can not have pets and there is no parking.

We love 1700 Chestnut! Great location, brand new apartments, and great amenities. The apartments are really well managed and Pearl Properties is super friendly and responsive.

Our apartment is brand new which is amazing! In addition to having one bedroom we have a separate study area. The common space is gorgeous.

My wife and I are the first tenants in this apartment because the building is brand new. The amenities space is incredible, and it seems like they spared no expense. There is an awesome gym, a main entertaining space, a multi-purpose athletic room (yoga room?), and a movie room. Our apartment is large, about 900 sq. ft and the ceilings are high. There is a small study with no door that is not factored into the bedroom count. The one downside to the building is that our unit faces the street and there is a lot of street noise. We are on the 4th floor, but I don't think being higher would matter. The building is near several nice hotels, which is great for safety, but bad for traffic. So, many people honk incessantly right outside our window. The management company is very good and well regarded. They are very responsive to any maintenance requests and sometimes host happy hours in the building to help residents meet each other.

1700 Chestnut is in a great location next to bars, restaurants and only a block from Rittenhouse Park. However, I do wish it was a block or two closer to campus and if you have a window facing either 17th or Chestnut it can get noisy at night. The finishes inside the unit are nice and the amenities space is great as well.

1700 Chestnut street has everything going for it except the fact that it is on the loudest street in Philadelphia. I live on the 6th floor and hear everything. It wakes me up multiple times at night. I think the building is phenomenal, with some of the nicest units i have seen in this city- if only it did not feel like you lived in a zoo!
