About the Property

Located right at 3615-35 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, 19104, United States, The Mark Philadelphia places students in the middle of University City. The University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) just 7 minutes away on foot, and Drexel University is around a 10-minute walk. There is a particularly wide choice of accommodation here, covering studio, 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, and 6B options.

Philadelphia has the scale and energy of a major US city, but its student population gives several neighbourhoods a distinctly academic feel. The city has an estimated 1.55 million residents (U.S. Census Bureau), while more than 130,000 students attend colleges and universities in the Philadelphia region (Select Greater Philadelphia).   Philadelphia also has a Walk Score of 75 (Walk Score), putting it in the “Very Walkable” category, which is useful for students who want to handle everyday trips without always relying on a car.  The city’s Transit Score of 67 (Walk Score) further reflects the role of buses, rail, and other public transport in getting around. For students, that combination means university campuses sit alongside a huge choice of restaurants, music venues, museums, parks, and neighbourhoods, while University City itself keeps academic life, socialising, and everyday errands unusually close together.
