Parkside is one of our favorite neighborhoods in the entire city, with its proximity to West Fairmount Park creating a grand feeling as you see the tree-covered park across the main strip.

It is no secret that Northern Liberties is one of the most development-heavy areas in the entire city, with huge projects sprouting up from the northeastern corner to the southernmost reaches of the neighborhood.
