Philadelphia - Northern Liberties
At the east end of Philadelphia, Old City overlooks the Delaware River. Rich in cultural venues, Old City is an entanglement of modern amusement and historical landmarks. Side by side the past and the present meet all the needs of Philadelphia tourists. From colonial to couture, the cobble stone streets guide visitors from Independence Hall to unique fashion boutiques. Home to some of Philadelphia's premier art galleries and restaurants, Old City provides stimulants for all the senses.
North of Old City, Northern Liberties is the new up-and-coming hotspot in Philadelphia. Home to a variety of artists and musicians, the neighborhood no longer consists only of row-homes and forgotten historic buildings, but it boasts the flavors, sounds and visual sensations of a cultural melting pot. With hip restaurants, inspiring galleries and an eclectic nightlife, Northern Liberties has a place for everyone.
With one of only three bowling alley lounges in Philadelphia, Northern Liberties' sports North Bowl, old-school bowling with a modern twist. With two levels of plush couches and great sound, North Bowl makes you want to show off those fashion backwards shoes on and off the lanes. There are posh bars on both levels, and North Bowl's retro atmosphere is great for relaxing, having drinks with friends and showing off your bowling skills. Classic kitchen favorites round out the good times.
A few blocks away, Near & Far demonstrates the artistic leaps being taken in Northern Liberties. A fine furniture and art gallery, Near & Far allows local artists to create custom pieces, in glass, metal and wood. These forward designs will set your home apart like no other. If you find comfort in old world masterpieces, Near & Far also imports unique pieces from the vibrant cultures in Asia. Highlighting intricate detailing and design, Near & Far is a great example of Northern Liberties' heritage and future.
Child-friendly and LGBT-approved, Northern Liberties is a great place to spend the day, night or a whole 24 hours.
