Neighborhood

Nestled just southwest of the heart of Center City, Southwest Center City is a revitalized neighborhood strewn alongside the Schuylkill River. The neighborhood’s many alluring rentals include stylish lofts, modern apartments, and charming townhomes. Southwest Center City boasts excellent walkability, partly due to its layout and partly due to its ideal location.

The University of Pennsylvania, both a premier Ivy League institution and the area’s number one employer, lies just across the Schuylkill River from the neighborhood and is accessible within a 10-minute walk. Southwest Center City also sits within walking distance of SEPTA’s Ellsworth-Federal Station, which is served by the Broad Street Line. Major city attractions are just steps away as well, including Rittenhouse Square, the Kimmel Center, and Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens.

Beautiful Place, Horribly Managed

Sanctuary Lofts has gorgeous units, but the management is horrible. The washer in the Rectory has been broken for months and they can't give me any information on when it will be fixed. They post bills weeks after they are due and send you late notices. They also refuse to answer any questions about why water/gas bills are vastly different month to month.

Property Manager at Sanctuary Lofts, Responded To This Review

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for your experience with the washer at Rectory. We attempted to repair it various times with no success and it has since been replaced. Residents are very happy with the brand new machines! The water/gas bills are generated through our property management database and Welcome Home Property Management does not dictate how these charges are allocated. The system divides the total water bill amongst the residents based on the square footage of the apartments. We apologize if this was not properly communicated to you. If you have any other questions or concerns please reach out to reach out to your property manager for further assistance.
