Up-and-Coming
Located in West Philadelphia directly across the Schuylkill River, Mantua is a historic neighborhood on the rise.

Today, this up-and-coming neighborhood features renovated townhomes, brick rowhouses, apartments, and other rental options for a variety of budgets, although the area is known for its more affordable options. Mantua's art studios and murals showcase its thriving arts scene while parks and the Mantua Urban Peace Garden illustrate the neighborhood’s strong sense of community.
