Summerdale, located between Bustleton Avenue and Roosevelt Boulevard, is a residential and commercial Philadelphia neighborhood with rowhouse blocks and auto-oriented corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bustleton Avenue and Cottman Avenue crossroads, where bakeries, delis, small groceries, and longtime service shops line the sidewalks. The Ukrainian American Sport Center anchors local cultural life with festivals and community events. Nearby, Pennypack Park’s trails and creek crossings shape daily routines with a strong outdoors thread. Housing reads as mid-century brick twins and rows with tidy front lawns and driveways. Roosevelt Boulevard’s broad lanes and retail strips set the edge-of-city tempo.

The districts are also intended to provide a density transition between RSD districts and RM districts.
