Welcome to Fishtown
Fishtown was named the #1 neighborhood in the USA by Forbes in June of 2018. It’s music and culinary scenes helped define what Philly is known for and why people come from all over to live here. A vibrant nightlife can always be found along Frankford and Girard Ave as you explore various bars, cafes, restaurants and shops. With easy public transportation, great commercial venues, beautiful housing stock and a great sense of community, you’ll fall right in love with Fishtown and everything it has to offer.
Fishtown is called as such because of the occupation of its earliest residents. Houses built in this area date back to the mid 19th century and remnants of these architectural features are still present in many of its houses.
