Sidewalk repair by Philadelphia neighborhood
Brick footways in Society Hill, root-heaved slabs in West Philly, stepped sidewalks in Manayunk, driveway aprons in the Northeast. Pick your neighborhood for local details.
Society Hill
Brick footways, street trees and one of the city’s best-known historic districts. Sidewalk work here is about matching what is already on the block.
ZIP 19106, 19147
Old City
Busy commercial blocks, sidewalk cafés and a 2003 historic district. Sidewalk work here has to keep pedestrians moving.
ZIP 19106
Queen Village & Bella Vista
Narrow streets, narrow sidewalks and tiny trinity houses. The City’s thicker-slab rule for narrow streets applies on a lot of these blocks.
ZIP 19147
South Philadelphia
Block after block of rowhomes with front steps right on the sidewalk. Steps and sidewalk often fail together here.
ZIP 19145, 19146, 19147, 19148
Fishtown
Heavy redevelopment means new sidewalks next to 100-year-old slabs, and plenty of construction traffic in between.
ZIP 19125
West Philadelphia
Big street trees, wide twins with porches, and three historic districts. Root-heaved sidewalks are a West Philly classic.
ZIP 19104, 19139, 19143
Germantown
Stone houses, retaining walls, and a 2024 historic district along Germantown Avenue. Sidewalk work often means walls and steps too.
ZIP 19144
Mount Airy
Tree canopy, sloped lots and twins on deep setbacks. Many sidewalks here are long, shaded and uneven.
ZIP 19119, 19150
Manayunk & Roxborough
Steep streets, stepped sidewalks and retaining walls. Water runs downhill fast here, and the sidewalk often takes it.
ZIP 19127, 19128
Northeast Philadelphia
Driveways, aprons and curb cuts are everywhere in the Northeast. That means more right-of-way concrete per house than in older parts of town.
ZIP 19111, 19114, 19124, 19135, 19136, 19149, 19152
