| Nearby Highlights This neighborhood is experiencing the early stages of an extremely visionary community, anchored by three major developments that are redefining this entire neighborhood and serving as catalysts for future growth: |
|||
| Hancock Square & Liberties Walk | The Crane Arts Building: A Hybrid Organization | North Bowl | |
| Hancock Square: a 5-acre parcel including 100,000 square feet of commercial space and over 400 apartments all surrounding a large unique public plaza that inspires a local vibrancy in this Neighborhood. Liberties Walk: a boutique lined pedestrian walkway and live/work units. |

An adaptive re-use of a former mechanics garage is now a 21,000-square-foot nightlife haven. From the retro benches and bowling alleys reminiscent of the 50s, to the bars, pool tables and lounge, North Bowl is a place that is truly unique to Philadelphia. | |
