Yes, at the Ambassador I Apartments every apartment has their own private balcony. The balconies are a unique feature of these Northeast Apartment Complexes.

Yes, parking is included at the Ambassador I Apartments.

At the Ambassador I Apartments, all first-floor apartments have a washer and dryer inside the apartment*. These same first floor apartments have the added advantage of having private entrances. For those apartments that do not have a washer/dryer inside their apartment, there is a washer and dryer conveniently located (in each hallway) near each apartment that is shared by only three (3) other families.  *see rental consultant for details.

Yes, most apartments at the Ambassador I Apartments feature at least one walk-in closet, and great storage in general for your clothes, shoes and other items.

Yes, the Ambassador I Apartments have both private entrances (where you walk directly into your apartment) and semi-private entrances (where you share an entrance with three other apartments). This gives residents the choice of totally private one-story “townhouse living, or semi-private apartment living.

The short answer is YES! The Ambassador I Apartments is a luxury apartment complex that was built with sound control and fire safety as a primary design component. Unlike most other buildings outside of the City’s downtown, the Ambassador I Apartments have concrete floors/ceilings separating apartments vertically, as well as, concrete party walls between adjacent apartments. While residents in other buildings are constantly complaining about hearing walking sounds from their neighbors, our residents live in an environment that protects them against such nuisance noises. Anyone who has lived in a building that lacks sound control, can testify to the importance of concrete floors and walls. Concrete floors, ceilings, and walls are another feature that sets the Ambassador I Apartments apartment from many others, and makes the Ambassador I Apartments so special.

Community Wide Surveillance System

The Ambassador I Apartments recently completed and implemented a state-of-the art surveillance system. We don’t know of any other apartment building’s surveillance system that compares in scope, size and sophistication to the system that is currently installed and operating at the Ambassador I Apartments. There are 39 simultaneous camera images focused on the front and rear of each building, and much of the parking lots. The images are all delivered in HD (high definition) color. The system has miles and miles of underground cable, and each camera is independently connected to a computer system. The hard-wired system is incased in conduit, and not dependent on Wi-Fi signals. The most special feature is the ability to share images. The digital images and videos are available to EACH resident. Residents can literally sit on the beach and view images of the Ambassador I Apartments on their smartphones. Each resident has to ability to zoom into a location and magnify the image live, just as they might do with stored photos on their iPhones or Android based phones. The system is simply amazing. The reason other communities don’t offer such a system is simple it’s very, very expensive to build and operate. Safety is something that the management team of the Ambassador I Apartments doesn’t just talk about. Safety features should be added to every families checklist of features that are important to them when looking for a place to live.

LED Outdoor Lighting

All of the exterior lighting is new at the Ambassador I Apartments. In the evening, the community is brightly lit. The architectural details of the exterior lighting posts match the new wall lights, and are very similar to what one would see on the streets of Paris. The site lighting adds a resort-like feel to the community. The high-tech lighting is a first in NE Philadelphia, or for that matter, a first for any Philadelphia (garden) apartment community. The new lighting extends from the front to the rear of each building for an added safety feature. The new lights double the light output (lumens) of our previous lights (and those found in other apartment communities), projecting and emitting light in an off-white soothing daylight color. The selection of both color and wattage for all of the new lighting was engineered to maximize light and comfort. Safety is something that the management team of the Ambassador I Apartments doesn’t just talk about. Safety features should be added to every family’s check list of features that are important to them when looking for a place to live.

Yes, virtual tours are available. We offer live virtual tours, 3D walk-throughs, video walk-throughs, and other options.

What distinguishes the Ambassador Apartments from any other community? The size of our apartments and the quality of construction. The maintenance and management team works tirelessly to create a relaxed and worry-free lifestyle for the residents.

Our apartments offer the largest room sizes found in an apartment in its price range and almost any apartment outside of its price range, and our apartments also have walk-in closets. The apartments feature an open floor plan for furnishing flexibility and come equipped with an eat-in kitchen (large enough for a table), made from real oak. Our apartments are also fully equipped with ample closet room, including at least one walk-in closet. Each apartment features a massive balcony with nine-foot glass sliding doors allowing for natural light to stream throughout the apartment. When summer comes around, you can enjoy it on your balcony to catch some sun. In the spring and fall, enjoy the fresh breeze that filters through the balcony screen, or eat in a dining room bathed in natural light. This is part of what makes Ambassador I Apartments so special. Speaking of the summer, you will want to take advantage of our beautiful, well-kept pool with chaise lounges, tables, and chairs. Best of all, it’s all included in your rent!

Ambassador I Apartments offers a washer and dryer within select apartments, and those that do not, have a semi-private laundry room conveinantly located outside their door. Want to live in an apartment building, but wish you had the privacy of a separate entrance? We provide just that: a private entrance. Our residential apartments are configured for young and retirees alike. Private entrance apartments are further distinguished by their physical design of being only “one step” above the sidewalk to the apartment level making them nearly barrier-free.

Ambassador I recently went through a major renovation. All of our apartments have been upgraded with energy-efficient lighting, R-40 ceiling insulation*, and insulated windows. For those seeking even more luxury, we offer Select* and VIP apartments*.

An incredibly important part of what distinguishes the Ambassador I Apartments community is the quality and design of the construction. If you ever lived in other apartments, you certainly understand the importance of sound and fire control. Sound control is perhaps the most important component that affects the quality of life of a resident, and while fire control should be the most important feature in choosing a place to live, it is the most overlooked component. The Ambassador I Apartments fire safety is provided by exterior brick walls, eight-inch concrete party walls, and eight-inch concrete floors which encapsulates all first-floor apartments and separates the first and second-floor apartments. The same systems that offer fire safety work to control sound. The concrete floors and walls at Ambassador I control noise at levels many times greater than any engineered wooden floor (the construction of most other buildings in and around Philadelphia) could possibly provide.
