NORTH  PHILLY

MORE:  NEIGHBORHOODS
North Philadelphia. Basically Broad Street, north of City Hall up to Temple, up to Hunting Park, up to Fern Rock, all the way to Montgomery Count and Cheltenham, Melrose Park, and Elkin Park. Broad Street has always been a major life of commercial activity in Philadelphia although it never quite developed in a similar skyline, major business manner as Market Street and hasn’t had a similar arts-based revival as South Broad. Oak Lane, West Oak Lane, Olney. At different times these were different places.

First impression driving down Broad Street to a game at Temple.  Catching the subway at Fern Rock.
