Around Dockside: Queen Village

Queen Village is one of Philly’s most desirable neighborhoods. It is a quaint, welcoming tangle of narrow blocks that are lined by Colonial houses and mature trees. The area began as a working class suburb that shares boundaries with Society Hill to the north, Bella Vista to the west and Pennsport to the south. Its unique history, coupled with its prime waterfront location and the old-time aesthetic charm, helps Queen Village stand out as one of Philly’s most charming neighborhoods.

If you like the historic feel of Philadelphia and Old City, you could take a walk just to admire the architecture of Queen Village. You can visit the historic Fabric Row, a stretch of 4th Street that takes its name from the many fabric shops and stores that line it. There are also quirky art galleries, vintage stores, and eateries around every corner. On 2nd Street, you’ll find public green space and well-loved pubs and cafes to the south. To the north, it empties into Headhouse Square, a beautiful historic open space hosting popular bars and restaurants and Philly’s premier weekend farmers market.
