Property Description
The open floor plan means the kitchen and living room exist in conversation with each other, so whether you are cooking on a weeknight or simply unwinding after a long afternoon on campus, the space feels connected and calm. Stainless steel appliances line the kitchen alongside a dishwasher, microwave, disposal, and refrigerator, giving you everything you need to cook a real meal without crowding the counter. The layout allows for a dining setup that does not feel forced, and when the evening runs long, the kitchen remains part of the room rather than disappearing behind a closed door.
The bedroom is comfortably sized with an entry-level position that keeps your living and sleeping spaces distinct without requiring you to climb stairs. A walk-in closet provides the kind of storage that actually changes how you organize your mornings, giving coats, luggage, and off-season clothing a place to live that is not your living room floor.
Beyond the unit itself, the building offers a fitness center for those early mornings when you would rather not commute to a gym, a game room, a meeting room when you need a quiet place to work or gather, and a laundry facility on-site. The building is gated and served by an elevator, and a dog park rounds out the amenity package for residents with four-legged companions. Parking is available on the lot, which matters in a neighborhood where street parking is genuinely competitive.
Speaking of the neighborhood, University City rewards the curious. Locust Street puts you within easy reach of the cafes, noodle shops, juice counters, and local eateries that line Baltimore Avenue and the surrounding blocks, the kind of corridor where a Saturday morning errand run turns into an hour of wandering simply because something always looks interesting. The mix of longtime neighborhood institutions and newer spots keeps things from feeling too polished or too worn, and the academic energy of the surrounding institutions gives the whole area a particular kind of vitality that does not slow down between semesters.
Cats and dogs are welcome here, with breed restrictions and a deposit required, so your pet can settle in alongside you. The building has worked to create a community that feels complete without being overwhelming, and in a neighborhood as layered as University City, that balance matters.
Your routine finds its rhythm quickly in a place like this. Coffee from a spot two blocks over, an evening walk through Clark Park, a meal at the kind of restaurant you will want to tell someone about the next morning. The 1927 bones of the building give it a gravity that newer apartments in the neighborhood cannot quite replicate, and the unit itself is sized for real life rather than for a floor plan brochure. 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.
