About Rhawnhurst

Rhawnhurst sits in the heart of Northeast Philadelphia, roughly bounded by Pennypack Park to the north, Roosevelt Boulevard to the south, Bustleton Avenue to the west, and Castor Avenue to the east. It is a neighborhood built for real life — quiet residential streets, local shops, and one of the best-connected locations in the whole Northeast.

Roosevelt Mall is in the neighborhood, with Target, Macy's, ACME, and dozens of other shops all within walking distance from the right address. Cottman Avenue has been a local dining corridor for decades, with everything from the legendary Country Club Diner to Asad's Hot Chicken drawing regulars from across the Northeast.

Commuters are well-served. The Boulevard Direct on Roosevelt Boulevard reaches Center City in about 30 minutes. Routes 1, 14, 18, 19, 20, 67, and 70 run through the neighborhood. And I-95 is 10 minutes away for drivers.
