Holmesburg, located between Pennypack Park and the Delaware River, is a residential and historic Philadelphia neighborhood with a creekside landscape and a main-street commercial strip. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Frankford Avenue near Rhawn Street, where corner taverns, longtime bakeries, and small storefronts keep the sidewalks active. Community pillars include the historic Glen Foerd estate, the Pennypack Environmental Center, and the Greater Northeast Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce. Rows of brick twins and porch-front homes line calm blocks, while Pennypack Creek trails shape daily routines. Industrial edges near the river contrast with leafy parkland, giving the area a grounded, working-waterfront feel.

The RSA, Residential Single-Family Attached districts are primarily intended to accommodate attached and semi-detached houses on individual lots, but may be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types, including detached houses. The districts are also intended to provide a density transition between RSD districts and RM districts. The Zoning Code includes five RSA districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
