Only one mile south of downtown, Allentown City Historic District is a picturesque, quiet, and friendly neighborhood full of gorgeous Victorian, Italianate, and Federal architecture nestled along tree-lined streets. Its timeless qualities and nearness to downtown's activity, fun, and culture make it a desirable destination for rentals and apartments.
The Lehigh Valley Thruway permits easy access to and from the neighborhood, while local buses service the entire city and even go directly to Lehigh Valley Airport. Allentown's extensive network of parks, trails, and green spaces heighten the Historic District's overall beauty and appeal.
The PPL Center on Hamilton Street hosts A-list acts annually, of most popular genres, but Miller Symphony Hall on North 6th Street is the place to be for opera, orchestral jazz, and established indie bands. Home to two professional sports teams, Greater Allentown also hosts a hiking club, a municipal golf course, and a YMCA.
