The Fishtown Kensington Area Business Improvement District is being extended and expanded to include both sides of Frankford Avenue from the west side of Delaware Avenue to the southwest side of Lehigh Avenue, among other streets. The Fishtown Kensington Area Business Improvement District, Inc., a Pennsylvania non-profit corporation, will continue to serve as the neighborhood improvement district management association. The District will be in place until December 31, 2029, and a special property assessment fee will be levied on property owners within the District to fund improvements and services.
This decision is important as it promotes economic growth, enhances safety, and improves the business climate in the Fishtown Kensington area. It also extends the boundaries of the district to include new areas and ensures continued development and improvement of the neighborhood.
