Located in West Philadelphia directly across the Schuylkill River, Mantua is a historic neighborhood on the rise. Mantua has played several important roles in Philly’s rich history, from architecture that captured the world’s attention in the 19th century to being the headquarters for several community and youth organizations. Today, this up-and-coming neighborhood features renovated townhomes, brick rowhouses, apartments, and other rental options for a variety of budgets, although the area is known for its more affordable options. Mantua's art studios and murals showcase its thriving arts scene while parks and the Mantua Urban Peace Garden illustrate the neighborhood’s strong sense of community.
Mantua is gaining popularity because of its incredible location. Mantua sits directly north of Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania. Fairmount Park, home to the Philadelphia Zoo and a plethora of museums, are just north of Mantua. For those who prefer mass transit, take the subway or bus to travel into Downtown Philly, which is about three miles away.
