Each tenant has separately metered accounts with both PGW and PECO. The landlord pays for Taxes, Insurance, and Water usage for the buildings, as there is one water meter per building. THE LOCATION Queen Village is a Philadelphia neighborhood nestled east of City Hall in the heart of Center City. Historically, it is a part of old Southwark, Philadelphia’s first suburb, which was incorporated into the city in 1854 and remains the city’s oldest residential neighborhood. Its walkability, historic charm, restaurants, and retail shop-lined streets attract a diverse blend of families and mingling city dwellers. It is an interesting and energetic blend of younger professionals and families that co-exist. This helps to keep occupancy rates at high levels for both retail and apartments in the neighborhood.
