Phoenixville is a Chester County borough located along the Schuylkill River and French Creek. Once a major iron and steel center, the borough has transformed its historic downtown into an active district of restaurants, breweries, shops, entertainment, apartments, and community events.

Bridge Street forms the heart of downtown, with the historic Colonial Theatre serving as one of Phoenixville’s best-known cultural landmarks. The Schuylkill River Trail provides regional walking and cycling connections, while nearby Routes 23 and 422 link the borough with Valley Forge, King of Prussia, Collegeville, and surrounding Chester and Montgomery County communities.
