Upon entering you are greeted by a spacious foyer boasting herringbone hardwood flooring, octagon ceiling inlay, beautiful powder room, and deep coat closet that leads to a massive storage space below the stairs. The grand great room is an entertainer’s dream, offering an open layout with double height 14 ft ceilings, wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, spacious living room and dining area, and access to the stairs, elevator, and a private balcony, ideal for enjoying a cup of coffee or dining al fresco while soaking in the see-forever city views.

Adjacent are floor-to-ceiling windows and a sliding door leading to the spectacular roof deck-- the only one offered at any of the penthouses in this building. This outdoor oasis features composite decking, ample space for entertaining, and perhaps the best views of the 4th of July fireworks in all of Philadelphia, which you don’t even have to leave your home to see.

Additional home highlights include rich wood floors throughout the common areas, plush carpet in the bedrooms, automatic shades on all windows, Lutron lighting system with recessed lights throughout, Sonos speaker system, and an internal elevator. he Philadelphian has often been called a “city within a city” due to the many services and amenities that its residents enjoy. These include a restaurant, grocery store, multiple medical offices, and a beauty parlor. Residents of The Philadelphian rarely have to travel far to accomplish their daily routine, but when the need to leave arises, the building offers a shuttle bus that runs all day long dropping off and picking up residents throughout Center City. Residents also enjoy a 24-hour doorman, indoor and outdoor pools, and a fitness center. On-site garage parking is available for rent (subject to availability).
