Park Tower
4001 Conshohocken Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19131
Park Tower is an income-based apartment property for seniors, people with disabilities and families at 4001 Conshohocken Ave in Philadelphia, PA. 156 of its 157 apartments are subsidized, in 1-bedroom sizes. The rent assistance belongs to the apartment, so you apply to the property itself and you do not need a voucher.
How to apply to Park Tower
- Call the property office at (215) 878-8882 and ask whether the waiting list is open.
- Ask for an application. The property keeps its own waiting list; the housing authority's voucher list is a different line.
- Have ID, Social Security numbers and proof of income ready for everyone in the household. The office verifies income before it offers an apartment.

If you already have a housing voucher
A Housing Choice Voucher pays part of the rent in a privately owned apartment you find yourself. It cannot be used in an apartment that is already subsidized, so the 156 income-based apartments here are not an option for it. Browse landlords in Philadelphia who accept vouchers or see Section 8 rent limits and housing authorities in Philadelphia County.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I apply to Park Tower?
- Apply to the property, not to the housing authority. Call the office at (215) 878-8882 and ask whether the waiting list is open and how to get an application. Park Tower keeps its own waiting list, separate from the Section 8 voucher list. Expect to show ID, Social Security numbers and proof of income for everyone in the household.
- What is the income limit for Park Tower?
- Most admissions to project-based Section 8 are for very low income households (50% of area median or less). Limited admissions above that level may be allowed within the low income limit. At least 40% of assisted units becoming available in a fiscal year must go to extremely low income households. The applicable admission rules depend on the contract; the office verifies eligibility (24 CFR 5.653). In Philadelphia County the FY2026 very low income limit is $42,950 a year for one person and $61,350 for a household of four.
- How much is rent at Park Tower?
- Residents pay about 30% of their adjusted income toward rent and a HUD contract with the property covers the rest. HUD's resident data records an average payment of $386 a month toward rent and utilities. This historical average is not a current rent quote. Your own share is calculated from your household's income when you move in and again each year.
- Do I need a Section 8 voucher to live at Park Tower?
- No. This is Project-based Section 8: the assistance is attached to the apartment, not to the tenant, so it is there when you move in and stays behind when you move out. One apartment is not subsidized; ask the office whether a Housing Choice Voucher can be used there.
