Love 2400!
Perfect location! Easy to get to Penn, easy to get to Rittenhouse.
Best view in town for the price.
Incredibly nice doormen/concierge
Newly renovated apartments have wood floors, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances.

Very Happy with 2400 Chestnut!
I wonder why more Wharton students don't live in 2400 Chestnut. The location is perfect--right across behind 2401 Walnut where lots of Wharton events and group meetings take place and about 20 minutes walk to Wharton. The rent is very reasonable and the rooms are very large. There is a 24-hour concierge, free gym and a free shuttle to campus on weekdays. Management is also fairly responsive and the folks that work in the building are super nice. My only complaint is that there isn't a lounge or large kitchen to host social events. Overall, I have not regretted choosing 2400 Chestnut one bit!

Quiet, adequate, nothing special
Things break relatively frequently (elevators, HVAC, garbage disposal, random brackets), but maintenance is responsive. The constant renovations are annoying but otherwise apartments are quiet. I rarely hear other residents.
They have an extremely weird and possibly illegal policy that three people cannot live in a two bedroom apartment unless two of them are related or married. This does not appear to apply to a one bedroom or studio so it makes no sense.

Satisfied Tenant
I've lived here for 3.5 years, and I am content with the living space.
The biggest draw back is the dated interior of the unit, though the building is currently renovating studios and 1 bedrooms (which are BEAUTIFUL). Also, there aren't great common spaces, so the building as a whole is not very social.
Otherwise, I love the building. I like the ease of an apartment building for mail, as compared to a brownstone. The concierges are all quite nice and management is super responsive. Maintenance issues are often addressed same day if the issue is reported in the morning. There is a free shuttle to and from campus on weekdays (SO CLUTCH FOR WINTER). Building comes with gym access. There is parking available for an extra fee, which is much cheaper than any other lots in the city outside of residential permits for street parking. There's laundry on each floor which I never have issues with. And the rent for the 2 bed 2 baths is a steal in my opinion. Other rooms are also well priced compared to other buildings in the city, especially the renovated units.
Overall, I would recommend the building.

Great Building - Friendly Staff
Awesome apartment...lots of space amazing views a little on the older side but entire building is being renovated starting with the 1 bedroom apartments. Maintenance service is incredibly prompt they show up in very few minutes. Free gym and shuttle bus to University City. You can’t go wrong with this building. Also good value for your money!

Spacious and great doorman/staff
Very close to campus, no dogs allowed, our view is probably the best in Philadelphia. Our place isn't updated but they're in the process of updating them all

Fitler Square Reviews
That being said I did notice that most students lived on the side of the school!
There are residents without housing in the neighborhood. They're good people and new residents should be respectful of them and their belongings.
