A comfortable hub in Philly's "Loft District", known for its high-rises and refurbished industrial buildings. Originally home to a major manufacturer, your own former factory building features a stunning open-plan layout with large Crittall windows, a polished concrete floor, and Edison bulbs hanging from the ceiling. The apartment leans into the artsy, creative vibe of this emerging neighbourhood by providing you with a vinyl player so you can sit back and relax to the warm tones of perfectly imperfect records at the end of the day. Head downstairs, and you'll find a vast three-dimensional, wall-mounted sculpture that sets the tone for the neighbourhood. Next, take a five-minute stroll to The Rail Park. Much like New York's High Line, it's an urban nature walk that winds between the skyscrapers. Come evening, those in the know flock to Spring Garden Street for its cool brewpubs and live music venues like Union Transfer, or head over to Underground Arts for music, comedy, poetry, and theatre performances. Elsewhere, vibrant 13th street is lined with lively bars and chic eats, while the area's art galleries show off eclectic works by local artists. If you're looking for non-stop entertainment, this Callowhill St flat is hard to... top.

About Pennsylvania
History nerds rejoice! Pennsylvania lives and breathes history. It’s hard to travel the state and not run into something, or someplace, of extreme historic relevance to the founding and development of the United States. The Declaration of Independence was signed here, as were the Constitution and the Gettysburg Address.
