Description

Philadelphia Neighborhoods; a compendium of historic views of the major residential sections of Philadelphia; presents a snapshot into the past when old neighborhoods were not so old and when currently established ones were as yet new construction. Through the medium of postcards; readers are invited back to an era before automobiles dominated the streets; before many city roads were paved; and when the local grocery store was not located in a mall. Using chapters divided into subsections that detail the various regions of North; South; Southwest; and West Philadelphia; as well as the �new� Northeast Philadelphia; the author chronicles the vibrant; diverse communities that have helped shape the city�s rich history.
