Aerial photograph of The Drake Apartments Building in The Rittenhouse Square area of Center City Philadelphia, by Duncan Pearson.
Constructed in 1929 as a luxury hotel, The Drake was once the tallest building in Philadelphia. Today, this elegant 32-story beauty has been restored to its original splendor and is home to stylish apartments and the most spectacular penthouses in the city.
Listed on The National Register of Historic Places, The Drake is a glorious example of what can be done to preserve our national treasures. A multi-million dollar historic renovation has transformed outdated apartments into stylish and contemporary spaces featuring the most modern appliances and amenities.
Among the most dramatic suites are the 16 penthouses that populate the top 8 floors. With huge terraces, upgraded appliances and unique layouts they are quite simply the finest in the city. Featuring several bi-level versions the penthouses offer spectacular views of the Kimmel Center and Center City.
