Frederick Weber, the architect responsible for designing The Touraine more than a century ago, was inspired by the architectural style of the ‘Chicago School’ and New York’s grand Park Avenue. His 13-story design included this dramatic porte cochère entryway and fine dining hall. #thetouraineturns100
“If you’ve ever wanted to live at the historic Touraine in Rittenhouse Square, join the club...now, the Touraine is opening up one of its doors for overnight guests with the launch of No. 108, a sleepover suite on the first floor of the 13-story building. Solms and her friend Natalie Suresch are the creative masterminds behind No. 108, a colorful, bold, and downright comfy one-bedroom suite. It’s available for at least two-night stays for both guests of residents or out-of-town visitors looking for a place to stay in Philly.” - Thanks Curbed Philly for the great write up.

At a century old, The Touraine is more efficient than ever. Each apartment has individually controlled heating and cooling to keep residents comfortable and help reduce unnecessary emissions as temperatures change.
