Garden Court, located between Baltimore Avenue and Cobbs Creek Park, is a residential and academic-adjacent Philadelphia neighborhood with leafy side streets and classic West Philly porch-front architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Baltimore Ave corridor near 45th Street, where trolley bells, corner groceries, and small cafes set a steady street rhythm. Community touchstones include Dock Street Brewery, Mariposa Food Co-op, and the historic 40th Street Trolley Portal. Twin parkscapes—Clark Park to the east and Cobbs Creek’s trails to the west—frame daily routines with open lawns and wooded edges. Brick twins and early-20th-century rowhomes line the blocks, while the SEPTA Route 34 and 13 trolleys stitch the area into Center City.

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.
