Eleven miles northwest of Philadelphia, Roxborough’s convenient locale provides residents easy accessibility to city attractions in a charming, yet modern neighborhood.
Prior to the 1854 Act of Consolidation, most of Roxborough was part of the Roxborough Township. The area was a thriving and successful textile mill, which helped fund many of the community’s schools and parks during that time.
Nestled between the Schuylkill River and Wissahickon Valley Park, there’s plenty of natural green space and settings to go around. Locals enjoy fishing for trout at the park, and going on evening walks at the Manayunk Canal in their free time. Many delicious and trendy restaurants encompass Ridge Avenue – but a popular, no-frills eatery is Dalessandro’s Steak, a cheesesteak shop by the Walnut Lane Golf Course.
Residents are comforted by their direct access to Interstate 76, SEPTA bus and rail services, and Thomas Jefferson University East Falls Campus.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at Emerald Heights
I’ve been living here for a few months, and I strongly recommend being mindful before signing a lease. This building clearly has a lot to figure out. For starters, it took months just to open the parking lot and even now, it’s still not fully ready. It honestly seems like they started accepting residents before they had basic infrastructure in place. On top of that, the ongoing construction is extremely disruptive. Be prepared to be woken up at 6 AM on random weekdays. This is inconsiderate, especially for those who work from home or have early classes not everyone keeps the same schedule. For the rent they’re charging, you can definitely find better. There are plenty of other more established developments that offer newer amenities and a more organized living experience. For a building that was supposedly just built this year, it’s disappointing how unprepared it feels. Bottom line: Look around before making a decision. You can get more for your money elsewhere.
Property Manager at Emerald Heights, Responded To This Review
We’re truly sorry to hear about your frustrations at Emerald Heights. This is not the experience we want any of our residents to have. Since the opening of the building, our team has made every effort to be transparent and maintain consistent communication with both prospective and current residents about the availability of on site garage parking. The use of parking was delayed due to use approval requirements with the city, which have concluded and garage parking is now permitted. No construction work has taken place since the opening of the building. Recently, there was some minor work completed in preparation for the official garage opening, which took place during normal business hours. We made every effort to minimize disruption to residents and provide appropriate notice to our residents as we understand any work is an inconvenience in a residence. We are grateful that the building now has additional parking and appreciate your patience. Thank you for being a valued member of our community.
We love living here !!! Great people and wonderful dog park and amazing apartment to live in. Close to everything!!!
Amy was great to work with. She helped us find the perfect department and went above and beyond with any questions we had.
