"Very Posh, Older Section of Philly"
This street is full of million-dollar row homes, many of which are occupied by lawyers, doctors, and other professionals. When I lived here about 15 years ago, the women on the street were primarily stay-at-home moms. Even still, they almost always had a nanny. There is a park - Rittenhouse Square - within just a few blocks so, although there are no lawns on the street, it's just a short walk to greenery. Even today, there are tons of ritzy shops, nightclubs, and "in" restaurants on Walnut and Chestnut Sts, which are both just blocks from Delancey. There are also several spas and very nice hotels. Lastly, public transportation runs all the time nearby so working downtown or in University City is a breeze.
