1806 Rittenhouse Sq

Built in 1952, The Rittenhouse Savoy is a 20-story midcentury high-rise sited on the south side of Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square. The roughly 230-residence building contains primarily one- and two-bedroom flats and studios arranged in a mix of traditional and open floor plans. Architectural character is understated midcentury modern: a welcoming lobby with large windows faces the park and sets a formal tone for the building. Interiors commonly offer hardwood floors, crown moldings, recessed lighting, built-in storage, walk-in closets in larger units, and renovated kitchens and baths in many residences. Common areas include a staffed 24-hour front desk, on-site laundry, a fitness center, bicycle storage, extra resident storage, and a library or communal sitting room. A newly updated rooftop terrace provides panoramic park and city views and serves as a social focal point. Exterior amenities are limited to urban conveniences such as sidewalks, street lighting, and exterior lighting around the entrance; loading zones simplify move-ins. Pets are restricted to cats only; dogs are not permitted. Monthly condo fees are notable for covering most utilities—heat, gas, electric, water, sewer and cable—streamlining monthly budgeting. The building’s address places residents immediately adjacent to Rittenhouse Square’s green space and within walking distance of high-end retail, restaurants, cultural venues, transit hubs like 30th Street Station, university campuses, hospitals, and the Schuylkill River Trail, making it a deeply connected urban residence.
