Take a Trip - Manayunk

Less than a 20 minute drive to Center City, Manayunk is a charming community along the Schuylkill River.

Why We Love It

Just minutes from Center City, Main Street Manayunk is the heart and soul of the community, with 275 businesses, including galleries, boutiques, bars and restaurants. Each spring and fall, Main Street closes to car traffic for the Manayunk StrEAT festival, bringing food trucks and vendors, live music and sidewalk sales onto the street. Manayunk is a welcoming community, and a popular choice for those commuting to Center City for work.

Neighborhood Feel

The combination of young families, young adults, and multigenerational residents gives Manayunk with a modern edge! Row homes that formerly housed millworkers during the industrial boom, now appeal to residents as much as the trendy loft apartments and Victorian houses scattered across the community.
