Queen Village | Philadelphia Real Estate

Overview

Located south of Society Hill, Queen Village consists of the blocks between Front and 6th streets and Lombard Street to Washington Avenue. The narrow streets are lined with shady mature trees and attractive homes. Queen Village is one of the longest-established neighborhoods in Philadelphia, and that fact is reflected in the feeling of pride that residents take in living here. Historically, the area was known for its large Irish immigrant community. The Old Swedes’ Church, completed in 1700, is the oldest building in Philadelphia and over 800 homes and buildings in the neighborhood are listed on the historic register.
