Rittenhouse Square is in the heart of Center City and its namesake is the destination of choice for mothers on play dates with their children, employees taking a break from work and neighbors enjoying a friendly game of chess.

Hundreds of restaurants and shops of every kind are within walking distance. Taxi service is ready to take you anywhere you want to go.

Rittenhouse Square is home to a diverse group of people including single professionals, families with children and an increasing number of retirees who are rediscovering the joys of city life.
