Logantown Home for Sale

Logantown in Altoona features a mix of Queen Anne-inspired duplexes, American Foursquares, and multiunit cottages from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The neighborhood's gridded streets are lined with homes that typically lack front yards and driveways, making street parking common. Single-family homes in Victorian and Colonial Revival styles are also present. Gospel Hill Park, a small green space with walkways and benches, is a notable spot, featuring a large American flag. Hamilton Park offers a playground, while the nearby Donald E. Witherspoon Memorial Basketball Court and Valley View County Park provide additional recreational options. Valley View County Park, located about 2 miles east, includes walking trails, a playground, and sports fields. Local dining options include Lychee Chinese Food and Petey’s Food and Spirits, a dive bar with pool tables and slot machines. The neighborhood is close to downtown Altoona, where newer establishments like The Clay Cup coffee shop and Levity Brewing Company have embraced the area's historic charm. Annual events such as the Flag Day ceremony at Heritage Plaza and the Blair Creators Festival bring the community together. Logantown residents benefit from the Amtran bus system and proximity to UPMC Altoona, a major local employer. The Pennsylvanian Amtrak line provides rail access to Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. While the local schools have average ratings, Penn State Altoona offers higher education opportunities nearby.
