NEIGHBORHOOD

The View is the perfect spot for our residents to enjoy the full rich experience of student life in Philadelphia. It’s just across the street from the center of Temple University’s campus, so it’s convenient for students to get to and from classes and events, but we also have direct access via SEPTA Regional Rail and subway to an incredible variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment! Our neighborhood is home to delicious restaurants, cafes, and pubs, as well as supermarkets, and movie theaters. That’s only a small selection of the options that exist just a short trip from our community.
