Elmwood Park, also known simply as Elmwood, is a neighborhood in the Southwest section of Philadelphia. It borders the city line with Delaware County at Cobbs Creek, and extends to the Schuylkill River. The city has adopted the Lower Schuylkill Masterplan, which supports infill housing development in single-family neighborhoods. The Lower Schuylkill Masterplan, an inclusive planning initiative led by PIDC, PCPC and the Department of Commerce, with generous support from the William Penn Foundation, developed a long-term blueprint for revitalization, recommending targeted public investments in roads, the environment, and public amenities to attract a diverse array of new and growing businesses. These investments are projected to attract over $860M in private investment and up to 6,500 new jobs, while establishing an integrated green network with five miles of new trails and 46 acres of new green space. Elmwood Park is fast becoming a hotbed for development in Philadelphia.
