About Elkins

Park

Elkins Park, located between Jenkintown and Cheltenham, is a leafy and historic Elkins Park neighborhood with grand stone mansions and a rail-linked main street. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Elkins Park SEPTA Station and the stretch of Old York Road nearby, where small eateries, everyday services, and commuter foot traffic set the pace. Landmark-scale architecture defines the streetscape, from the Lynnewood Hall estate to early-20th-century homes on winding, tree-lined blocks. The Curtis Arboretum adds wooded trails and open lawns that shape daily routines. The Hiway Theater in nearby Jenkintown and the Cheltenham Center for the Arts anchor local culture with screenings, classes, and performances. Sidewalks, pocket parks, and the station platform create a walkable rhythm across the neighborhood.
