ABOUT BUSTLETON
A suburbanized part of the Far Northeast, Bustleton is located south of Somerton; sitting between Roosevelt Boulevard to the east, the city boundary to the west, Red Lion Road to the north, and Pennypack Park to the south, it is centered at the intersection of Grant Avenue and Bustleton Avenue (PA-532) and is completely included in the 19115 postal zip code. Once part of Philadelphia’s outlying Lower Dublin region, the neighborhood’s current design grew from Philadelphians’ desires for larger property and access to commerce.
