Rittenhouse Square

Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia PA

Though Rittenhouse is known for its trendy boutiques, luxury housing, and elegant restaurants, the park itself draws a diverse population of families, artists and locals alike. Farmers’ markets, art fairs, and a variety of events accentuate the city’s creative vibe and love of all things local.

It may be a tourist must-see but it certainly bears no resemblance to the pack-like, camera ready crowds one usually associates with visitors. Rittenhouse invokes a magic unlike any other part of the city. The bench-lined pathways and softly-lit lamps slow the hustle and bustle, allowing those within it to while away the hours sunbathing, picnicking, or conversing, while little ones explore the fountains and statues.

The Rittenhouse community is strong. The small businesses have relationships with the locals, understanding that they wish to maintain a way of life that promotes beauty and quality, and create environments that do so. They often contribute to galas and fundraisers that are held in the park. It is quite the opposite of what you expect to find in the middle of a city, making it not only a desirable place to live, but a true commitment to a way of life.

Home Types in Rittenhouse

This area offers mostly condominiums, with very few row-homes or single family homes. The condos vary from high-rise buildings to low-rise buildings, one to three bedrooms, some with parking some without. Many of the low-rise condo buildings were converted from the mansions they originally were originally and made into condominium units. Single family homes in the Rittenhouse square neighborhood tend to be large stately mansions, elaborate and historically ornate.

Restaurants and Dining

Rittenhouse and food go hand in hand, from the elegant outdoor seating at Parc to Barclay Prime, a distinctly unique fine dining experience along the Square. For a more casual encounter, cafes such as Metropolitan Bakery’s take the cake (pun intended). The lack of wifi and the beautiful community table in the center of the café contribute to Rittenhouse’s tight-knit personality.

Bars and Nightlife

Nightlife in Rittenhouse is much like its day life. Bars and pubs are a short travel eastward along Sansom, Chestnut and Walnut Streets, or Westward toward 20th street and beyond.

Shops, Galleries and Boutiques

Rittenhouse is proud owner of many small boutiques, which tend to be appointment only or at least require a ring of a doorbell. Art is taken seriously, boasting numerous small galleries and art shows throughout the warmer months. Local businesses mix pleasantly with the well-known chains along Chestnut and Walnut Streets.

Parks, Landmarks and Attractions

The park caters to events all year long, from art fairs and farm stands to the Spring Festival, which attracts more than 50,000 people one Saturday every May, and the Ball on the Square, the largest fundraising event each June for the Friends of Rittenhouse.
