Logan Square offers homeowners historic buildings, public spaces and restaurants in walking distance
One of the central neighborhoods in the Parkway Museums District is Logan Square. The busy Center City is within walking distance of “a couple different downtown neighborhoods, so you’re pretty close to everything,” says Mike Bottaro, a local realtor with Homestarr Realty, with over $124 million dollars in sales. Public parks and historic art museums surround the eponymous square and feature well-maintained brownstone townhouses and high-rise condominiums.

Established brownstones and modern high-rise condos
“You’ve got more established homes in Logan Square, less construction than other downtown areas, and good walks to local restaurants,” says Mike Bottaro. Most Logan Square’s homes were built before the 1970s but feature well-maintained interiors and amenities. The community’s townhomes feature brick exteriors and ample street parking, while condominiums feature in-house amenities such as fitness centers, deck or balcony access and pet-friendly accommodations. Home prices vary depending on several factors; a condominium that is less than 1,000 square feet and is farther away from the community’s center starts in the low $200,000 range, while larger homes closer to major attractions or roadways can range from $500,000 to as high as $3 million dollars or more.
Logan Square has rows of condominiums and apartments in the inner Philadelphia city.

Love Park is a vibrant urban plaza home to well-known artworks. It hosts the Christmas Village, a celebration featuring hundreds of vendors and a dazzling array of Christmas lights. The eponymous Logan Square features the ornate Swann Memorial Fountain, whose bronze swan statues symbolize the city’s waterways.

Northwest along the parkway is the main building of the Free Library of Philadelphia, which features a massive collection of rare works, including collections from Beatrix Potter and Edgar Allen Poe.

The housing is very nice, and very upscale. Most places are well maintained and updated. The only downside is price - very expensive to live in this area.

We chose this neighborhood for its proximity to Center City where both me and my wife worked. We were opposed to spending 3 hours everyday stuck in traffic so we decided to live near our work. We have not regretted that decision. Center City Philadelphia is the hub of the most important businesses and the largest employers in the city, like the U. Penn, Drexel University, Comcast.
