ICON presents an incomparable opportunity to live in what has long been considered one of the most breathtaking buildings in Philadelphia. Mixing the beauty of the past with the modern amenities of today, this incredible new rental building – included on the National Register of Historic Places – soars to new heights, just like its iconic, ziggurat-topped peak. A quintessential example of the Art

Deco exuberance that defined the 1920s and 30s, ICON’s design is inspired by Art Deco’s geometric shapes and today’s streamlined lifestyle. Inside a dramatic façade that appears taller than its 25 stories, one finds faceted surfaces, aluminum details, stunning light, and cutting edge conveniences and technology. The lobby is so stunning as to make one stop in their tracks, with its Art Deco-styled elevators, glazed black brick and grey porcelain flooring and a cast-bronze portal. And the residences feature the kind of classic fixtures, state-of-the-art appliances and iconic details that can only be found in a landmark building.

Devon Horse Show and Country Fair

The beloved Devon Horse Show is an annual equine tradition dating back to 1896, making it the oldest and largest outdoor multi-breed horse competition in the nation. Held at Chester County’s famous Devon Show Grounds, the pageant features equestrian disciplines, open-air exhibitions and events including a dog show, a carriage showcase and a Memorial Day tribute.

Alongside the competition is the old-fashioned Devon Country Fair, itself an institution since 1919, with a half-dozen pop-up restaurants and plenty of fair food stands, dozens of boutique shopping and souvenir vendors, and a family-friendly Midway featuring a Ferris wheel and carousel.
