History

Informally known by historians as a “streetcar suburb,” Spruce Hill dates back to 1850 when it was used as a country retreat from Philadelphia. However, as time went on, more urban residents began to find the area highly desirable for its close proximity to Philadelphia’s city proper. Most importantly, it allowed residents the option to reap the benefits of urban living while remaining firmly grounded in a suburban environment.

From 1850 to 1910, development boomed. In response to the increased popularity in Spruce Hill, sophisticated transportation systems came into play to shuttle people back and forth to Philadelphia, thus birthing the “streetcar suburb” nickname that proliferated throughout the early turn of the century.

Today, the historic district of Spruce Hill retains many hallmarks of the past. While other Philadelphia neighborhoods have removed streetcar lines in favor of increased automobile traffic, streetcar lines remain in use today by way of the Philadelphia trolley system in Spruce Hill.

While over a century has passed since its inception, Spruce Hill has retained its roots. The neighborhood expertly pairs historic features, including vibrant Victorian homes and the continued use of trolleys for commuters with sprawling, tree-lined streets and a modern, eclectic range of bars, restaurants, and shops. Spruce Hill has been cultivated as a destination for those seeking a “suburban within a city” community.
