A community where friends and neighbors can come together and enjoy their surroundings within a little piece of Philadelphia history.
The neighborhood known as Brewerytown is located in North Philadelphia bordering the Schuylkill River. Much like the other niche neighborhoods within Philadelphia, Brewerytown has its own special blend of local residents ranging from students attending the nearby universities and young professionals to lifelong residents, who have always called Brewerytown home. The neighborhood’s name is derived from local history, since Philadelphia is known for being the first in the nation to introduce beer. In the 19th and early 20th Centuries, Philadelphia had nearly 700 breweries and this area was home to the great majority.
