About Philadelphia - Manayunk

Why Manayunk?

Manayunk has become a fashionable location for shopping, dining, and just hanging around. For more information, check out the Manayunk website.

One of the defining elements of the Manayunk/Roxborough area is its proximity to Wissahickon watershed and Fairmount Park, the world's largest municipal park (I know Munich's English Gardens make the same claim, but I haven't had the time to research the details as of yet). For more information on this under-appreciated recreational asset, check out the Friends of the Wissahickon website.

The Manayunk/Roxborough section of Philadelphia also happens to host the premier professional cycling race in the United States. This picture is taken right in front of our former office.
