Great amenities, but the rooms are small
Good - amenities (common room, gym, indoor swimming pool, jacuzzi, roof deck), decent management team, responsive maintenance, lots of other Wharton residents, in apartment washer dryer Bad - expensive for the room size and actual unit quaility, elevators have been breaking down a lot recently, location is a few blocks away from Rittenhouse Sq
Great!
No regrets about 1500 Locust
Best Wharton Building (security can be better)
Pros: great Wharton community beautiful rooftop gym, pool, and study lounge good neighborhood, convenient Cons: slow elevators, elevators frequently break down building a little old except for renovated parts poor security expensive

Good experience, recommended if you value amenities
Nice apartment building, good amenities (gym, pool, common lounge area, training classes), excellent location. Good attention from the office. Quick response in case of need of repairs in the apartment. Elevators have been an issue, but they are being repaired and renewed. 24 hours front desk, but they sometimes let every guest in without checking in.

Great building, but tons of elevator issues
My apartment itself is great but the building has had numerous elevator issues. At least one is out of service more often than not. It's becoming a real issue that never seems to be correctly resolved.
Amazing amenities and nice units, but terrible management
The front desk staff is completely apathetic. The management company is pretty terrible, and the elevator situation is abysmal. However, the apartments are nice, and the amenities (particularly the lounge and the gym) are worth the rent.
Great for Wharton students!
Great building and close to the Wharton community (many students living here). While there may be other places that offer a better value, I believe this is a great option for 1-2 years.

Solid Building
All good just the elevators are a bit slow.
Safe choice, but a little dull
It's a great building but apartments are old and boring.
Great Location and amenities, but a little expensive
The building has amazing location, lots of Wharton students and ideal facilities (large gym, rooftop, lounge, pool..). Management is friendly and efficient in solving any sort of issues in the apartment. Great view in the top floors. I have only 2 bad things to say about 1500 Locust: elevators can take long and rent is quite high for a 1 bedroom...

Rittenhouse Square Reviews
Spruce Street in particular is great - it's a little south of the square, so is quieter/shielded from a lot of the traffic that the neighborhood gets, but it's not out of the way or far away. There's a Starbucks, a grocery store (Rittenhouse Market), and a few corner stores (Four Seasons and Food & Friends) within a 2-3 minute walk of my apartment.
