Nestled just south of Center City is Queen Village which combines historic charm with a slew of new boutiques, restaurants and nightspots. Brimming with neighborhood pride and intriguing public spaces, this neighborhood has a great citywide reputation rightfully so.

Over the years Queen Village has become widely recognized as a great place to raise a family, stroll the sidewalks for some leisurely shopping and hit an art gallery or bar at night.
