Castor, located between Frankford Avenue and Roosevelt Boulevard, is a residential and commercial Philadelphia neighborhood with rowhouse blocks and a transit-linked streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Castor Avenue at Oxford Avenue, where corner delis, bakeries, small grocers, and takeout counters keep the sidewalks in motion. Brick twins and straight-row homes define the streets, with pocket parks and schoolyards breaking up the grid. Castor Avenue reads as the main corridor, stitched together by SEPTA stops and everyday storefronts. Nearby green space at Tacony Creek Park adds a wooded edge for walks and bike rides.
