Philadelphia basks in its rich history while simultaneously looking toward the future. The city’s many residential neighborhoods stretch out around the backdrop of Center City’s ever-growing skyline.  The old and the new intermingle to create a charm that is the heart of Philadelphia. From the quaint riverfront rowhome neighborhoods, to the revitalized inner neighborhoods and on to the ever-growing neighborhoods of high-rise glass and steel, Philadelphia holds on proudly to its past, even as it moves to create an amazing future. Because Philadelphia is the country’s fifth largest city and the number of neighborhoods is extensive, Phillyneighbors will focus on those areas from Center City to the Far Northeast, from the Roosevelt Boulevard East to the Delaware River, especially those neighbors known as the River Wards.
