Most residents praise the spacious apartments, convenient Wynnefield location, responsive maintenance team, and supportive leasing staff.

Rent increases and parking security are additional concerns raised by some residents.

The property benefits from a convenient, quiet neighborhood location near City Avenue retail, Fairmount Park, and major highways with reasonable commute times to Center City.
