Very spacious apt with affordable rent. Close to supermarket and other popular apt among Wharton student. Sound insulation is mediocre.

Central Location, Good Value

There are no amenities. The security/doorman situation leaves much to be desired. Big apartments with no luxury. Not great.

No major complaints now in my third year of living here. Paying much less than comparable buildings (1919 Market, Riverwalk...). Amenities are simple-- doorman, mail service, trash pickup, small gym, 6th-floor patio, and in-building garage for cars (extra $) AND bikes (free). Responsive management, haven't had any major issues in over a year.

I think 2040 provides the best bang for your buck. Apartments are decently sized, have a lot of natural light, a deck, a gym and a front desk concierge (though you will always have to go to the lobby to retrieve your guests; they won't bring them up). The apartment is across the street from Trader Joe's and from the trolley you can use to get to campus and down the street from Planet Fitness.

The apartment is spacious, comfortable, and has plenty of sunlight - a very good deal for the price. The deck is lovely for hosting and the apartment was clean and well-managed when we moved in. Though the space really varies by unit so check out the floor plans before deciding on a unit.

The biggest issue is that there is a fire station just down the road which leads to a lot of noise in units that are on lower floors, especially facing towards the fire station. Some people get used to it but for me it was a problem because I'm a light sleeper. Management response has been a hit and a miss - one of our issues was fixed promptly while another took days. Another smaller problem is that one has to go down to let anyone in - can be a problem if you're expecting guests to go down multiple times. Overall, the building is low frills (gym is small and there aren't any amenities per se) but really good value for money.

There are a number of great things about living at 2040 market. The apartments are, in my opinion, great value for the price. The units can be quite large, with floor-to-ceiling windows. There is also access to a gym with cardio and weight equipment (pretty average). The gym also has three Peloton bikes, which is a plus. While no pool, there is a nice outdoor patio to host events on. The building staff/front desk personnel are also friendly. There are many Wharton students that live at 2040 so it is nice to have people to walk/carpool to class together, etc. 2040 Market is also located right by the Trolley stop that goes right to campus, which is quite convenient, and it is also across the street from the Trader Joe's. One negative is that Market Street can sometimes get a bit sketchy at night (not necessarily different from other parts of the city), but there are sometimes some shady characters that hang around outside particularly near the liquor store beneath the apartment building, which has made me be particularly cautious -- especially at night. The apartment requires a fob to scan in as well as to get up in the elevators, which adds security.

Good value for the money

The apartment is not spectacular but a great value with close proximity to other buildings and some really nice amenities. The quality is so-so but is still better than a brown stone. I live in a corner unit!

Very spacious apartment unit. Doesn't count as a luxury apartment but very clean and good amenities. Good location - close to coffee shop, Trader Joe's, wine store, trolley and bus station. There are also many Wharton students here so that it's easy to social around.

Only complaint is the front desk. They don't treat themselves as front desks so you can't rely on them to guide your friends upstairs. Some of them don't have a good attitude when you talk to them.
