Girard & Frankford: Fishtown & Kensington

W. Girard Avenue and Frankford Avenue

Candace Karch of Bambi Gallery shows you around her neighborhood, a place that has a “small-town village” feel, and neighbors still sit on their steps and talk. Traces of Fishtown’s industrial past share the landscape with hip new cafes, longtime eateries, corner bars, and galleries. Featured locations include: Penn Treaty Park; Sulimay’s; Hot Potato Café; Canvas Café; Rocket Cat Café; Di Pinto Guitars; Circle Thrift; and the Bicycle Stable , where Candace talks with owner Chaz Vlasits about the unique characteristics of the neighborhood.
