Basic Information

Location - Powelton Village is located in the University City section of Philadelphia, across the Schuylkill River from the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Center City. It lies just North of Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania.

Maps - The Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau produced this great map which shows Powelton in relation to the rest of downtown. The University City District also has a good map of University City and there's always PVCA's wonderful map of historic Powelton.

Transportation - Powelton is very well served by Trains (Amtrak), Subway, Trolley and Bus lines (Septa), or of course you could drive. Philadelphia International Airport is about 4 miles away and served by frequent train service.
