Point Breeze originally stretched east to west, from 25th street to Broad St. Then about 10 years ago, another set of perimeters squeezed into this South Philadelphia area. It is a neighborhood under revitalization. Longtime residents and newcomers enjoy eclectic coffee shops, multiple neighborhood bars, a diverse list of restaurants, and plenty of community gardens.
