Neighborhood

Located north of West Kensington and south of North Philadelphia, Fairhill is a terrific neighborhood just four miles north of Downtown Philadelphia. This neighborhood consists of classic Philadelphia row homes and apartments. It is bordered by Glenwood Avenue to the north and Lehigh Avenue to the south. Fairhill blends historic and urban, featuring narrow streets, wide sidewalks, and colonial architecture. Fairhill is named for the Fair Hill plantation built by Isaac Norris in the early 1700s. The Fair Hill Burial Ground is a Fairhill landmark. This cemetery, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was founded by Quakers in 1703.

If you need to stock up on anything from groceries and baked goods to car parts, you won't have to travel far. In fact, locals love Fairhill's convenience to a Save-A-Lot, Family Dollar, and Tru-Value Hardware. When you prefer to have dinner out, head to Freddy & Tony's Restaurant or El Principe.
