Neighborhood

Grays Ferry draws residents who value in-city living, green space, and easy access to waterways. The community takes its name from ferry owner George Gray, who shuttled across the Schuylkill River where it borders the neighborhood's northwest corner. This historic South Philadelphia neighborhood sits just minutes from the downtown area and features affordable to upscale rentals in a variety of styles. ranging from houses to apartments. Grays Ferry feels urban and is home to several business parks, but the Grays Ferry Crescent Trail Park along the riverfront provides locals with a quiet, scenic place to gather for picnics, walks, bicycling, and fishing. Other popular locations include the Grays Ferry Crescent Skatepark and Lanier Playground. For nightlife, locals head to 1201 Bar, where they enjoy shooting pool, sipping cold drinks, listening to music, or watching a game on one of the bar’s big-screen TVs. Grays Ferry boasts an excellent location as well.
