Home, Close to Wherever You're Headed
Living close to work changes the rhythm of the whole day, not just the drive there. Our apartments near Jefferson University put its hospital and Drexel University about 10 minutes from home, with the University of Pennsylvania just over a mile down the road and Penn Medicine Rittenhouse just a minute away. It's the kind of closeness that gives you a little more breathing room, time for a slow morning coffee, sit-down dinner at home, and an early night when you need one.
Off the clock? There's a lot to do close to home. Head to Rittenhouse Square Park, picnic blanket and a good book in hand, or to Schuylkill River Park for a run along the trail or a stop at the farmers market. When cooking's not on the agenda, South Street District has a restaurant for every mood, and Whole Foods and Trader Joe's make the everyday grocery run easy to fit in. Whatever the evening calls for, it's already close when you live at The Pepper Building.
