Pine Tower sits in the heart of the University of Pennsylvania's favorite Off Campus neighborhood, Spruce Hill. Our tree lined street bustles with a community serving Penn and the entire University City District. With a robust commercial corridor just 2 blocks away, easy access to Penn & The University of the Sciences, and public transportation a block away, it's no wonder Pine Tower has been a neighborhood stalwart since 1985.
With the common areas professionally redesigned, every single unit features hardwood flooring, granite counters, decorator glass tile backsplashes, high-efficiency central air conditioning with a thermostat that you control, and huge walk-in closets with an abundance of storage.
Grad students and working professionals love Pine Tower for it's quiet atmosphere. 33 units of only studios and one-bedrooms assure an attentive ambiance. On-site high efficiency laundry, video security and monitored access, programmed intercom access, 24/7 maintenance, and ample permit parking though our neighborhood assures peace of mind for the focused professional.
We pay for water, sewer, trash, recycling, and bi-weekly common area housekeeping. We also provide complimentary 1 gig Xfinity Wi-fi. Tenant pays only for gas & electric (approx. $85/month in total).
