The Pennsylvania Hotel, now known as Chestnut Hall, was designed by Clarence E. Wunder, and built in 1922. Wunder is also responsible for designing Daffy’s (in 1927) and the Neuweiler Brewery (in 1913). The 10-story building’s architectural style is Renaissance revival. The building consists of a steel structure, a cement and brick facade, and an entablature with accompanying cornice along the top. Once built, the building served as the Hotel Pennsylvania. In the 1940s it became known as the Hotel Philadelphia. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, it was known as the Penn Sherwood Hotel. The University of Pennsylvania obtained the building for student housing, but in June 2006 Apartment Investment and Management Company (Aimco) bought a majority stake of the property.
