Excellent location - Closer to the campus than most other buildings. Very helpful doormen and management office. Infrastructure is well maintained. Includes gym membership.

Great location, great doorman, great amenities. Only downside is its pricey, although it is comparable amenities-wise to buildings directly on rittenhouse square while being significantly cheaper per square foot.

Building is in a fantastic location. The front door staff are very professional and take very good care of the building. There is a decent gym as well as nice swimming pool on the rooftop. The units are tad bit on the old side but other than that, absolutely no complaints. Really nice that 50+ Wharton students live in the building.

Location is excellent, and the amenities (gym, doorman, pool) are great. The apartments are spacious.

Wanamaker House is very conveniently located for a quick trip to campus. It's less than 30 min. walk and less than 15 min. bus ride. Bus stop is steps away. Doormen here are awesome! They are always so friendly and helpful. In addition, there's a great little gym on the top floor with wifi access as well as a rooftop pool open during summer hours. My studio is not modern whatsoever, but it's a great size with lots of closet space. Overall, it's been absolutely easy living in the Wanamaker!

The Wanamaker has been great. It is a condo building so the apartments are inconsistent. Mine is not newly renovated but even with the carpet and old appliances it is very nice. The building has a full gym and pool with 24 hour doorman. Great views with floor to ceiling windows in each room. The elevators are a little slow. From a location standpoint, it is great to still be in the Rittenhouse Square area and be walkable to class. The walk is about 25 minutes. Being right across from Irish Pub is convenient but it is a little bit of a walk to the rest of the bars/restaurants in the area.

Great location, lots of Wharton students in the building

There is wide variation in how much each unit is renovated. If looking at the building, be sure to at least get photos. Some units, like mine, have been recently updated; others still have original carpeting and appliances which are decades old. The building also has lots of ammenities, including washer/dryer on each floor, a gym on the top floor, and a pool. It's important to note that the pool is normally only open Memorial to Labor day, which is less useful for Wharton students.

Great location for anyone planning on living in the Rittenhouse Square area and comuting daily to UPenn campus. Floor to ceiling windows.

Really a very good building. Lots of Wharton students live here. Slightly pricey but I think it's worth it for the location, the niceness of the building, having a 24/7 doorman, etc. One of the few buildings I found where you can get a studio with a great view. At the time of writing (11/2913) the building has some hot water issues in the mornings when everyone is showering at the same time, but management claims they are fixing it by adding more boilers -- make sure to ask about it before signing your lease.
