Sky-High Luxury: Inside the Final Custom Penthouse at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Philadelphia
Imagine standing 46 floors above Center City, surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass, watching the sun dip below the horizon over a city that sits entirely at your feet. Now imagine that every inch of this space... every fixture, layout choice, and architectural finish is yours to decide.At 1414 S Penn Square, 46 West (PH1B) represents the final opportunity to custom-build a sky sanctuary within the iconic The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Philadelphia . Represented as a Luxury Listing by Arielle Roemer at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach, REALTORS®, this ready-to-finish penthouse isn't just another luxury address, it’s a blank canvas at Philadelphia’s most celebrated address.Spanning the entire western face of the 46th floor, 46 West offers 4,046 square feet of pure potential. The architectural volume alone is breathtaking: soaring 13-foot ceilings and roughly 182 linear feet of continuous floor-to-ceiling glass wrap the residence, drenching the space in natural light and framing panoramic views from every angle.While the future owner retains complete freedom to bring in their own design team, the listing includes a conceptual architectural plan that highlights the home’s incredible layout potential:
A Framed Art Foyer: A grand gallery entrance designed specifically to display a major private art collection before opening into the expansive main living areas.
City Hall as Your Backdrop: Expansive living and dining spaces framed by nearly 46 feet of north-facing glass, positioning Philadelphia’s historic City Hall as a dramatic backdrop.
A Chef’s Dream Kitchen: A proposed kitchen running along 86 feet of glass with a massive center island, complemented by a separate, discreet scullery kitchen for private chef service and prep.
Private Sunset Terrace: A west-facing outdoor space built for entertaining against sweeping sunset views over the western horizon.
A Southwest Primary Suite: Positioned in the quiet southwest corner, featuring 50 feet of south-facing light, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-scale bath.
Two additional bedroom suites round out the conceptual floor plan making it ideal for guests, or easily reimagined as an executive home office, private library, or personal wellness room.Living at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Philadelphia means the line between home and resort seamlessly disappears. Residents benefit from world-renowned white-glove hospitality, including 24-hour concierge care, valet parking, chauffeur services, in-residence dining, and personal housekeeping.The building itself houses over 10,000 square feet of private amenities, including:

A dedicated yoga and wellness studio
A private screening room
A resident lounge opening onto an expansive outdoor terrace with fire pits, dining setups, and grilling stations overlooking City Hall

Situated just steps from Rittenhouse Square, 46 West puts Philadelphia’s world-class dining, high-end shopping, and vibrant cultural scene right at your doorstep. Yet, 46 floors up, it remains a tranquil, light-filled refuge from the bustling city below.Because this is the final raw penthouse available within the building, an opportunity of this scale and creative freedom will not happen here again.To explore full architectural concepts, floor plans, and listing details or to schedule a private tour, please contact Arielle Roemer at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach, REALTORS®.
