PlanPhilly: Planning Philadelphia's Future

The Point Breeze neighborhood suffered from abandonment and population decline throughout the mid 20th century. Today it is now a neighborhood under revitalization from efforts steered by Universal Companies, South Philadelphia HOMES and other prominent Philadelphia organizations. The families, business owners and friends of Point Breeze are gradually working toward a safer, greener community. With the assets of Point Breeze Ave., Chew Playground and Wharton Park, combined with the location nearly 1.5 mi south of Rittenhouse Square, this area is bound to become a great community for Philadelphia residents.
