Originally constructed in 1925[2] in an English Renaissance style, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places on February 8, 1995.[2]

The hotel hosted the 1944 NFL draft, 1960 NFL draft, and 1961 NFL draft.[3]

The building has been divided into condominiums and a hotel that operated as the Radisson Blu Warwick Hotel in the past, but is now an independent hotel, the Warwick Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia.[4]
