The Strip District's got character. It's the kind of place that's seen hard use and can handle it. You can sense what the Strip must have been like back when: rugged, purposeful, with all the old warehouses and factories. Today it appears tamer than it must have once been. At one time it teemed with immigrant workers and their families, but today not as many people live in the Strip. It is just east of Downtown, and is surrounded by Polish Hill, Lawrenceville, and Bedford Dwellings .

Now this neighborhood is bustling with businesses where one can find fresh produce, meat, poultry, fish, spices, and knick-knaks of all kinds at very affordable prices. People from all ethnic backgrounds and social classes can be found on the crowded sidewalks, squeezing between sidewalk sellers displaying their wares, and food vendors making made-to-order hot dogs. Sometimes you can see a game of bocce while joining in the ritual of Saturday afternoon shoppers searching for all your household needs along Penn Avenue.

Recent developments include old warehouse and manufacturing buildings renovated into loft spaces for living and working. Some of the most innovative designs can be found in the Strip.

The Strip is also lined with night life entertainment that offers exotic food, drink, and dancing. Whether it be hard rock, disco, or pop music that moves your body, the Strip is the place to be. It is a vibrant night spot for both young and old.

If you are in the mood for enjoying musical entertainment or shopping for that special ingredient for tonight's dinner, or just people watching . . . the Strip is the place.
