Cramer Hill

Cramer Hill is a vibrant waterfront community located along the Delaware River. The community is home to a viable “main street” - River Avenue- but also vast open spaces that serve as home to a diverse range of wildlife. These natural resources are linked to the Camden GreenWay providing residents with an easy way to access public transportation connectors via the RiveLINE or PATCO.

In addition, new investments promise to elevate Cramer Hill’s image and provide the community with new services and amenities. The Salvation Army Kroc Center, improvements to Von Neida Park, regional bicycle trails, continued investment along River Avenue and new housing proposed by Cramer Hill CDC illustrate aconfidence and commitment to the community’s future by multiple organizations.

History of the Area

Cramer Hill was established by the developer Alfred Cramer to provide modest homes to people working in the local ship yards along the Delaware River. Originally fueled by an influx of German immigrants, Cramer Hill continued to grow and evolve, now representing a globally diverse mix of residents.
