About The Metropolitan

Rich with character and architectural details, the Metropolitan offers luxury apartments filled with contemporary finishes. A Philadelphia Art Deco landmark which rises 26 stories into the center of the city’s skyline, this masterpiece was designed by the famous French architect Louis Jallade in 1926. Original limestone details and the iconic 1920's Metropolitan sign on the exterior are matched inside with a spacious new lobby, a sleek rooftop terrace, a state-of-the-art gymnasium and art deco basketball court and a brand new resident lounge. With impressive views and a minute's walk to the shops and businesses of downtown Philadelphia, the Metropolitan apartments are made for city dwellers.

The Metropolitan is located in the Avenue Of The Arts South Neighborhood and 19102 Zip code of Philadelphia, PA. This community is professionally managed by GY Properties
