Property Description
The open floor plan makes the most of 663 square feet with a layout that breathes rather than squeezes. An easy flow connects the kitchen to the living area, so cooking and conversation happen in the same uninterrupted space. The kitchen itself is outfitted with stainless steel appliances — refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, and a self-cleaning oven — along with upgraded countertops and a range hood that keeps the space functional without feeling like a compromise. A washer and dryer are in-unit, which quietly changes the rhythm of an entire week. Window treatments are already in place, giving you light control from the first night. The bedroom includes a walk-in closet with enough room to actually organize a life, and the whole unit carries the kind of considered finish that makes settling in feel effortless rather than eventual.
Step outside your door and the building holds its own. Icon was built in 1930, when Philadelphia's Center City was constructing the kind of bones that last a century, and the building has carried that architectural presence forward. Concierge service grounds the experience from the lobby level, and dedicated security means the building is attentive without being intrusive. Elevators serve the floors reliably, and a parking garage is available for residents who keep a car in the city.
The amenities here reward a particular kind of resident lifestyle. The fitness center downstairs removes every reasonable excuse for skipping a morning workout. The game room is the kind of space that turns casual neighbor interactions into actual friendships. There is a meeting room for the days when a coffee shop simply will not do — a proper table, a proper chair, no background noise competition. A picnic area offers a change of pace at ground level. And then there is the roof deck, which is genuinely one of the more compelling reasons to live at this address. On a clear evening, you carry a drink up and look out at a city that earns its skyline, and for a while the day's remaining tension simply has nowhere to stand.
Cats and dogs are both welcome here, which matters because a neighborhood like Rittenhouse Square is built for dogs — morning loops around the park, sidewalk café tables that don't mind a leash nearby, a rhythm of daily life that is inherently walkable. The square itself is steps away, flanked by some of the city's most respected restaurants, independent shops, and the kind of culinary density that turns a Tuesday into something worth leaving the apartment for. Walnut Street in this stretch is a corridor of energy — bookstores, espresso, dry goods, evening reservations — without ever tipping into the kind of chaos that makes a neighborhood exhausting rather than alive.
Living here means the city's best cultural and dining radius is essentially your backyard, the building takes the details seriously, and at the end of a long day you can always go higher. Pricing and availability subject to change on a daily basis. Photos are of model units. Parking may be available subject to availability and may be an additional fee.
