Rittenhouse Hall

Located in the heart of Center City's most prestigious neighborhood, Moore's newest student residence hall is just seven minutes' walk to campus and features fully-furnished apartments with 24/7 security.

With high-end finishes, modern amenities, and an ideal location that's close to all of Philadelphia's cultural attractions, Rittenhouse Hall offers primarily juniors and seniors an affordable luxury-style housing option in an exceptional part of the city. Located at 1831 Chestnut Street, Rittenhouse Hall is a beautifully maintained, historic turn-of-the-century building overlooking Rittenhouse Square with safe and easy access to local parks, the Schuylkill River Trail, public transportation, major highways, and more.

Each unit is tastefully appointed with high-end condominium quality finishes and includes stainless steel appliances, quartz slab countertops and backsplashes, herringbone wood floors, vaulted ceilings, tiled showers and rainfall shower heads, and oversized windows that let in sweeping natural light. These luxury apartments also feature washer/dryers, central heating & air conditioning, and impressive city views.The hall's first-floor lounge is a relaxing space where students living in the building can comfortably relax, mingle, or work in front of a gorgeously modernized and functioning fireplace.

Residents can also enjoy the convenience of Rittenhouse Hall's closeness to Center City's shopping district with a Target, CVS, and Trader Joe's just around the corner. This neighborhood is also recognized for its thriving community of locally-owned shops, restaurants, and cafes within minutes on foot. This central and desirable location also allows our students the advantage of close proximity to potential career opportunities in Philadelphia's thriving creative economy and provides exposure to the city through a sophisticated lens.
