The Murano Condominiums

Center City, Condos: $450 - $500 psf, Rittenhouse

Posted by: Tim Stokes on Jan 19 09

The Murano Condominiums is a beautiful 42 story building on the corner of 21st and Market. This new, exciting addition to the Philadelphia skyline features 1-3 bedroom luxury condos behind its impressive glass facade. Located near many of Philly’s best restaurants and shopping, the Murano is an ideal base from which to experience urban living to the fullest.

Solomon Cordwell Buenz, the architecture firm behind the Murano has designed a building that is both interesting and functional. The floor plans take advantage of the curved facade to present incredible views even in the lower floors. Rather than finding a challenge in the building’s unique shape, the designers have turned that shape into a benefit.

The Murano features all of the amenities one would expect from a luxury condo building. There is valet parking, a concierge service and, of course, a fitness center. The building also adds a couple of unique ideas like a shared patio high above the city and an indoor pool with a view. Residents also have access to a hospitality area in case a party invite list exceeds the capacity of their unit.

There is nothing particularly inexpensive about the Murano, but for those in the luxury condo market it could be a great value.
