Each month, we&#8217;ll release another write-up of a new Philly neighborhood.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>After living outside of Pittsburgh for the past few years, I moved to Philadelphia to attend Temple Law. With only an outside knowledge of the city and its neighborhoods, I searched through Craigslist for something that was within walking distance of the law school. I knew my first year would be insane, and I figured I\u2019d spend most of my time in the library anyways. The result: I ended up on 13<sup>th<\/sup> and Diamond, at the edge of Temple University\u2019s campus. Surrounded by undergrads with \u2014 how should I say this \u2014 different social schedules than me, little to no restaurants, and no good cafes, I ended up spending most of my time in the library without much regret.<\/p>\n<p>My second year, all that changed.<\/p>\n<p>I have a few priorities for a neighborhood I want to live in: (1) great cafes with coffee-snob-level brew, (2) within biking distance of my school\/place of work, (3) a few good bars and dives, and (4) a distinct lack of pomp. With the last quality there, I prefer a place that is <em>just<\/em> starting to realize it\u2019s awesome, but hasn\u2019t entered the \u201cpost-hip\u201d expensive-just-because level quite yet (<em>see e.g.,<\/em> Brooklyn, NY). Luckily, in Philadelphia, there are a number of neighborhoods that have this distinct quality of desired grit. For me, it turned out to be Fishtown.<\/p>\n<p>Well, more specifically, \u201cPortfishington.\u201d Port Richmond, Fishtown, and Kensington all closely overlap each other. A cartographer would tell me I live in Port Richmond. But I walk one block and, magically, I\u2019m in Fishtown! Walk a few more blocks, and poof, I\u2019m in Kensington. So, it\u2019s all Fishtown to me.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aside aside--box aside--left\">\n<h3>Fishtown Rapid Fire<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Best Thing About Fishtown:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Hipsters<br \/>\n<strong>Worst Thing About Fishtown:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Hipsters<br \/>\n<strong>How I get to Temple Law:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Bike.

Within our budget, we found a recently-renovated row house in South Philadelphia. It was miles from school, strangely high in rent, and the whole house was tilted slightly. We then viewed another apartment in West Philadelphia, an old mansion converted into a wonky duplex that had high rent and a long commute. Finally, we viewed a place in Fishtown. It was a newly-constructed row home with hardwood floors throughout, brand-new appliances, lots of space, and two full bathrooms. The most surprising thing \u2014 it was less than anything else we\u2019d viewed. Moreover, it was only two miles from campus. At $2,000 total, my roommates and I are able to live in a brand-new row home for about $500 each.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Night Life<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Typically, my girlfriend and I find ourselves taking most of our dates in Fishtown. We like to get out and about and see new people and places, but almost any conversation about where to go ends up with some new place in Fishtown. Whether it\u2019s eating one of America\u2019s best pizzas at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bonappetit.com\/people\/chefs\/article\/beddia\" target=\"_blank\">Pizzeria Beddia<\/a>, deliberating which craft beer we should try on tap at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/johnny-brendas-philadelphia\" target=\"_blank\">Johnny Brenda\u2019s<\/a>, or celebrating the end of exams with more pork belly than I could handle at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/kensington-quarters-philadelphia\" target=\"_blank\">Kensington Quarters<\/a>, Fishtown has the best restaurants I\u2019ve eaten at in Philly. And if those places are too busy, we can always grab a burrito from the <a href=\"http:\/\/citypaper.net\/cover\/2-am-eats-fishtown-food-trucks\/\" target=\"_blank\">food trucks parked on Girard and Frankford Ave<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Coffee and Study Grinds<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_816\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/La-Colombe1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-816\" class=\"wp-image-816 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/La-Colombe1-300x200.png\" alt=\"La Colombe Coffee Shop\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/La-Colombe1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www2.law.temple.edu\/voices\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/La-Colombe1.png 840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-816\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">La Colombe: M.

Last fall, <a href=\"http:\/\/philly.eater.com\/2014\/9\/29\/6864323\/la-colombes-fishtown-flagship-is-open-for-business\" target=\"_blank\">La Colombe<\/a> opened its flagship location on Frankford Ave., and it is the most impressive caf\u00e9 I\u2019ve experienced. With phenomenal coffee, massive ceilings, big tables, great food and even cold beer, I\u2019ve put a number of hours in at this shop. Still, if over-the-top isn\u2019t your style, my recommendation is my most local caf\u00e9,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.reanimatorcoffee.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Reanimator Coffee<\/a>. Locally roasted beans, friendly faces, and a proper alternative rock playlist make this caf\u00e9 by regular stop for my weekly supply of coffee beans.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Location and Transportation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Fishtown is just a little over two miles from Temple\u2019s campus, and that\u2019s fine by me. Hipsters have made the locals well aware of bearded bicyclists in Fishtown \u2014 it\u2019s become bike friendly with biking lanes on the main thoroughfares throughout the neighborhood. My daily ride to\/from school is a healthy 15-minute jaunt, first down York Street, then straight up Berks Street\u2019s bike lane onto campus. I head to the federal courthouse twice a week too. By using the bike lanes on Delaware Ave, located just four blocks from my house, I\u2019m in center city in about ten minutes. For me, Fishtown is perfectly located to facilitate a cycling habit. It\u2019s close enough to always bike, and not so far that I might skip on days when I\u2019m feeling lazy.<\/p>\n<p>Friends who prefer not to bike can hop on the #3 Septa bus located on Front and Berks. From there, it\u2019s a 15-minute ride to campus. You can also catch an elevated Market Street Line train at the same intersection, which will take you directly into center city without much effort.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"pull-right\"><em><strong>&#8220;For me, Fishtown is perfectly located to facilitate a cycling habit. It\u2019s close enough to always bike, and not so far that I might skip on days when I\u2019m feeling lazy.&#8221;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>With a car, all of Fishtown is within a mile from I-95. Jump onto I-95 South and you\u2019re a five-minute drive from center city, and a ten-minute drive from the shopping on Delaware Ave in South Philadelphia. The airport is even less than 15-minutes away \u2013 a small miracle in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>All in all, Fishtown has become the best neighborhood I\u2019ve lived in. Great coffee, beer, and company abound. The only downside is that I\u2019m probably not spending as much time in the library as I could otherwise. Still, to find a balance between the demands of law school and the exciting city that we live in, I\u2019d say it\u2019s worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After living outside of Pittsburgh for the past few years, I moved to Philadelphia to attend Temple Law.
