Aston-Woodbridge, located between North Broad Street and North 22nd Street, is a residential and institutional Philadelphia neighborhood with brick rowhomes and campus-lined blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Broad Street near Temple University, where corner delis, student bookstores, and late-night takeout counters keep the sidewalks in motion. Temple University’s main campus and the Liacouras Center act as major anchors for daily rhythms and event nights. The architecture shifts from tight rowhouse grids to larger academic buildings and mid-rise apartments. Side streets feel quieter, with small stoops, pocket gardens, and murals adding texture. SEPTA’s Broad Street Line stations along Broad Street shape how people move through the area.
