Castor Gardens, located between Roosevelt Boulevard and Frankford Avenue, is a residential and commercial Philadelphia neighborhood with brick rowhomes and leafy side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Cottman Avenue and Castor Avenue crossroads, where corner bakeries, longtime delis, and small storefronts set a steady, everyday rhythm. Postwar twins and tidy porches define many blocks, with pocket greenspaces breaking up the grid. Castor Avenue’s retail strip adds barbershops, produce markets, and takeout counters in a compact run. Nearby Tacony Creek Park frames the edge with trails and wooded stretches. SEPTA’s Market–Frankford Line at nearby stations links the area to Center City without changing the neighborhood’s grounded 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.
