All About

Living in William Penn Annex West, PA

Philadelphia's William Penn Annex West neighborhood is known among local apartment residents for its reputation as a hub of arts and culture.

Nowhere is that reputation more evident than at the Trocadero Theatre, formerly known as the Arch Street Opera House. Originally built in 1870, the historic venue is still a popular haunt among local apartment residents because of the variety of live music acts that play there. In the past, the theatre's stage saw minstrel shows, vaudeville acts, burlesque performances, art house cinema and fine arts theatre. It was even once a dance club. But today, apartment residents visiting the Trocadero Theatre will likely do so to enjoy one of the mainstream musical acts, stand-up comedians or the occasional film screenings that play there.

Those who rent apartments in William Penn Annex West can also appreciate the neighborhood for its independent art scene. One such venue - Space 1026 on Arch Street - is renowned as a hub for the underground arts. The venue is nonprofit and supports local and national independent artists who can showcase their work or develop pieces in its on-site studio and art space. Charmingly off-beat and intentionally vague, officials at Space 1026 take pride that their establishment allows local apartment renters an artistic outlet.

The culture of William Penn Annex West is what sets it apart from other areas of Phildelphia, but its many restaurants, clubs and venues are what keep local apartment renters busy year-round.
