Mostly, though, it offers 30 or so square blocks– between 6th and 11th streets, from South Street to Washington Avenue, of solid neighborhood. A neighborhood where brick rowhouses lean against each other under canopies of London Plane trees; where neighbors gather over coffee or bocce; where dog walkers and cat nappers enjoy pocket parks.

Whether you’re a resident or a visitor, this site is yours for the exploring. Come, enter the world of Bella Vista– where the old and new blend in a way that’s uniquely Philadelphian.
