River views reward residents of Downtown Harrisburg, where converted historic buildings and newer developments offer urban living along the Susquehanna riverfront. Many apartments feature industrial-chic details like exposed brick and high ceilings, while newer buildings offer contemporary amenities like fitness centers and rooftop lounges. The neighborhood provides walking access to both state government offices and Restaurant Row's dining options, though street parking can be challenging without a garage space included in your lease.
Gilded Age grandeur defines this district surrounding the State Capitol's 272-foot dome. Renters enjoy restored Victorian mansions but note lead paint abatement requirements in 85% of pre-1900 homes. The Broad Street Market's Amish pretzels draw lunch crowds that dominate curbside parking.
Historic architecture distinguishes Uptown, where this Harrisburg neighborhood showcases houses spanning multiple eras from Victorian to Arts and Crafts. Rental options include apartments in divided larger homes with original woodwork and hardwood floors rarely found in newer construction. The neighborhood provides walking access to both the Capitol Complex and Italian Lake Park, creating an ideal balance between urban accessibility and residential charm unusual for capital city settings.
