Olde Kensington (not to be confused with East Kensington or Kensington) is centrally located, bordered by Norris Square, Fishtown, Northern Liberties, and Ludlow. This pocket of Philadelphia offers a wonderfully central and vibrant place to call home. Olde Kensington’s architecture is a testament to its industrial past and evolving future. Once a center for manufacturing and craftsmanship, known for its bustling textile mills, breweries, and foundries. Walking through the neighborhood today, you’ll encounter a mix of classic Philadelphia rowhomes, industrial warehouses, and sleek, modern constructions. Many of the former factories have been converted into loft apartments, art studios, and co-working spaces, creating a unique juxtaposition of old and new. Double-wide North American Street runs through the middle of the neighborhood, bringing local breweries, small businesses and artists studios. Other restaurants and neighborhood businesses such as coffee shops, yoga studios, are tucked among the residential streets. The lines between Olde Kensington and nearby neighborhoods like Fishtown and East Kensington blur easily, offering a seamless connection to the local scene. The neighborhood’s location is ideal for transportation. It’s walkable, close to bus, subway, and trolley lines, and served by numerous bus routes.
