About

Rhawnhurst

Rhawnhurst, located between Roosevelt Boulevard and Pennypack Park, is a residential and commercial Philadelphia neighborhood with mid-century brick twins and broad, car-friendly avenues. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Bustleton Avenue and Cottman Avenue crossroads, where bakeries, delis, small groceries, and long-running storefronts keep the sidewalks busy. Community pillars include the Northeast Regional Library, the historic Pennypack Park stone bridges, and the Pennypack Environmental Center. Housing leans toward tidy twins and ranchers with driveways and small front lawns, giving blocks a steady, lived-in rhythm. Pennypack Creek’s wooded trails add a quieter counterpoint to the boulevard traffic. Shopping clusters along Bustleton and Cottman keep daily errands close to home.
