Not worth the price

There is constant smoking going on inside the building. My bathroom fills up with smoke regularly. I am not responsible for the smoke, but the management has sent me accusatory emails. It is not in a great location because it is in a flood zone. I have heard other residents say that they have seen people shooting up drugs outside the building. It is hard for uber/delivery drivers to locate the apartment for some reason. They regularly leave my food on the street. I would not live here in retrospect.

Overall One of the Best Options

My experience here has been good so far. For the price, space, and the fact that the units are renovated, I feel like you really can't do much better in Philly. My only complaints are that there's no in-unit laundry (although there are two of each W/D per floor) and apartments have window a/c and heat rather than central air (I haven't had any issues with temperature control thus far). You can find other places with in-unit W/D and central air, but you have to compromise on space, price, etc. There is also a shuttle to campus here which is very convenient. Otherwise it's about a 15 minute walk to the law school, which is also very manageable. As a side-note I just want to add that the construction outside can be kind of annoying. I checked reviews extensively when I was searching for apartments, and there weren't really any noise complaints for this building. However, now they're supposedly building a high rise next to us, and construction started right around the time I moved in. I just had bad luck with the timing. Hopefully by the time students move in next year, the construction will be mostly over with.

Just Ok

It's renovated and the management is quick at responding to repairs, but the elevator is extremely loud if you live across or next to them. Some 1BDRs are located directly across, and all studios border the elevators -- you can hear them going all night/morning.

n/a

I really like the apartment itself. Stuff does break occasionally, but maintenance is quick to fix things. Great distance from both the school and most Center City activities. And $200 for parking in Center City is a great deal. The $2000/month flat rate is a bit more than I wanted to spend though

Popular building with Wharton students

It's further from Rittenhouse Square than other apartments but that's a blessing for me as this means a good quiet night's sleep. View of the river is amazing and there's plenty of natural sunlight in every room. The train is loud, and you can hear it despite the thick windows, but thankfully they come very infrequently.

There's a shuttle service that's free that goes to campus every half an hour in the morning, which is convenient if you are able to get on one of the 11 seats on the bus.

No social space for hosting, so if that's important to you, 2400 Chestnut is not for you.

About Fitler Square

Situated right along the Schuylkill River, Fitler Square is a quaint neighborhood full of old-school Philadelphia charm. It's part of a larger area more commonly referred to as 'Schuylkill' that's also comprised of Devil's Pocket and Grays Ferry. Renters rave about this area for the nearby parks and...

Fitler Square Reviews

Fitler Square is really cute and homey. It's around a lot of other medical students, so it's a good social area and has an easy commute to school. It's also great if you like running because it's right off the trail on the river. Food is good but a bit homogenous (compared to West Philly especially.
Locust and spruce feel a lot safer than market or chestnut at night. Very residential streets with beautiful brownstones. Also close to dog park and the river walkway. About 10min walk from the popular buildings and 25min walk to huntsman
good place for people new to the city! close to both Penn and a lot of stuff downtown. I never lived in Philly beforehand, and definitely recommend this location
Love the neighborhood! If you're interested in being close to the center of the city and being able to actively explore Philly (for a not extreme price) it was great! Also was easy to get to my school - University of Pennsylvania. 15-20 mins to get to school by transit; 30 mins walking.

That being said I did notice that most students lived on the side of the school!
The beautiful tree-filled neighborhood is full of families, dogs, and students - it is safe, full of great restaurants, and boasts an equally quick walk to both University City and downtown attractions. The immediate access to the Schuylkill River Trail also can't be beat. While we lack apartment amenities, we love living in a historical brownstone that has charm and character. This is an area where you can live as a student and stay for another 20 years after that.
Great neighborhood, though expensive for Philly. If you're a Penn grad student who wants to be near campus but not on campus, it's ideal for distance from school and the Rittenhouse area. Lots of parks and residents are friendly.
There are residents without housing in the neighborhood. They're good people and new residents should be respectful of them and their belongings.
The neighborhood is very residential. Not a ton of bars/restaurants which can be annoying if you just want to pick up food after a busy day, but it's right near the park and Skukyhill river trail which is great for exercising and getting outdoors. Close to Trader Joe's and South Street market which is convenient
Center City is a fantastic area. I live on the northern side of it, which is the more financial/industrial/apartment building side. I live 2 blocks from a busy Trader Joe's and inches away from tons of great restaurants, corner stores, and shops. It's close to Rittenhouse Square, a swanky square block with a tiny park in the middle, as well as the Schuylkill River trail (great for running and biking) and the Art Museum area. Multiple major bus lines slice through this neighborhood, making it quite easy to get anywhere when you don't want to walk or bike.
