The Collins
Very spacious and great value for base rent. Management is generally quickly responsive. Amenities include concierge, gym, and indoor and outdoor rooftop lounges. Estimated $100 total utilities (electricity, gas, internet, etc) in addition to base rent/month for a 2-bed/2-bath apartment.
Great place to live
Love my apartment. Good amenities. Gym is ok. Roof is awesome. Apartments feel modern and updated. Great location.
Good value, relatively private building
Pros: great rooftop with grills and a view of the city, nice units, reliable front desk and maintenance service, located among lots of nice retail shops/bars/apartments, fewer students than most buildings (which was a positive for me), CorePower yoga in building
Cons: slightly farther from University City than other buildings, basic gym, rent goes up annually
Great apartment for physician resident
I have overall been very happy with this apartment and building! Street can be a little loud but the building itself is quiet and street noise has only woken me up during the night once in three months. It's not the most fun intersection but you're a short walk from great areas to explore and the hospital. Maintenance issues are addressed pretty quickly and having someone at the front desk all the time for security and packages is so nice. I've been happy with my apartment's amenities and the penthouse social space.

Great spot close to the hospital!
The Avenir
My partner and I have plenty of space in our 1 bed 1 bath with a den (~1000 sq ft). We are less than a minute to transit and have plenty of food and grocery stores not too far from us, with Target and Trader Joe's within a 10-minute walk. We have access to a lounge and study spaces with one even on our floor. Our gym is nice with plenty of cardio machines, free weights, and a few machines. We have had no major issues but because of the location if you live on a lower floor, the noise from outside can be a lot.
Great location
Love living at Icon, enough Wharton students to Uber to class and occasionally run into classmates without it being overwhelming. The common spaces are beautiful and the apartment is awesome, lots to love.
A great option!
I'm very happy with this apartment! It is spacious and way less expensive than other apartments nearby this size. Management is responsive, they come by for requests always by the next day. The gym is a little small but has pretty much everything I need. Great rooftop area as well. The only downsides to the apartment is the little overhead lighting and the little closet space (spacious closet in bedroom and small hall closet)
Great area and apartment, unresponsive management
I have been at Icon for about 2 months and am very happy with the building, amenities, maintenance/front desk staff, security and my apartment.
It was a HUGE hassle and stress trying to communicate with management after sending in my rental application and waiting to hear if the application was approved (they were simply not responsive for several days and did not include my broker on communication), but it ended up working out in the end.

Good overall!
Mostly a Great Building
Pros: Very nice apartments, big windows, great rooftop and amenities, and decent pricing for what you get.
Cons: Terrible management and a few blocks further east of where most other law students live.
Unbeatable location
Just two blocks from Rittenhouse Square and surrounded by Philly’s best stores abs restaurants, this apartment offers great value for the price. Natural lighting could be better, and it can be easy to hear neighbors, but the unit is very comfortable. Management has also been pleasant to deal with.
Good location
Love the apartment, it has a gym and a lovely rooftop area. I appreciate the 24 hour concierge. It's in a good location with quick access to everything including public transport.
A place with little Wharton presence
I liked my place because it was reasonably priced for a 1 bedroom. The downside was not many Wharton people living in the building (which could also be good if you need a break at night). It's located closer to the city hall. However, it's easy to take buses to the campus. Walking is fine. Not much amenity other than a gym, which is often very quiet.
Amazing property - 2 blocks too far
This building is great - the amenities are a major highlight. There is a gym, movie theater, lounge with pool table, roof, full kitchen & hosting space. The actual apartments are modern & spacious. My other MBA friends are always so pleasantly surprised seeing my space.
The cons are that living here means you’re just out of the center of MBA life - literally about 2 blocks away but as a woman walking home late at night after a party those 2 blocks become problematic at times. Also, this building is less social amongst MBAs (which can be nice at times because you don’t run into someone every time you get into the elevator so your home is a safe comfortable space).
