Neighborhood

Once the epicenter of the commercial shad fishing industry, Fishtown is now a creative hub for artistic, culinary, and musical action in Philadelphia. Beer gardens, independent coffee shops, diverse restaurants, eclectic bars, vibrant murals, and live music abound in Fishtown.

Renting in Fishtown affords residents the option to catch a concert at the Fillmore Philadelphia, play classic video games at Barcade, and drink artisanal coffee at La Colombe Coffee Roasters. Palmer Park and Penn Treaty Park also offer a lush reprieve from city life in the neighborhood.

Fishtown manages to feel far removed from the hustle and bustle of Center City, despite being less than a ten-minute ride away via the El. Convenience to I-95 connects Fishtown to destinations like New Jersey, New York, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. in less than a two-hour drive.
