I've just finished a series of edits fixing some of the neighborhood listings that were off or inconsistent with surrounding buildings. Some remaining edge cases for the neighborhood boundaries:
Washington Square is listed as Independence Mall, but the Athenaeum (building on the square) is listed as Society Hill. Should we list both as Society Hill (which seems to be often taken to extend to around 8th street) or both as Independence Mall?
The two listings in Callowhill are not actually in Center City, same with the Juvenile and Domestic Branches of the Municipal Court and Park Towne Place next to Logan Square, as these buildings are all north of Vine Street. I think the thought including them was that they are adjacent to Vine Street, but I would prefer to remove out of consistency (the other Center City district boundaries are respected strictly, including the South Street boundary without any buildings on the other side). Any input on that?
Broad street is now a clear boundary between Washington Square West and Rittenhouse Square East, but Market East is a little funny -- it includes City Hall and three buildings (Land Title, Witherspoon, and Fidelity-Philadelphia Trust) that are south of Chestnut, while not also including American Baptist Publication Society which is on the same block as Land Title. An alternative is to designate all of these to Rittenhouse Square East or Washington Square West, leaving only City Hall and Broad Street Historic District part of Market East.
Finally, we need a clear boundary between West/East Rittenhouse Square, currently I used 20th street, placing the square itself in East. Some maps place the boundary around 18th instead, which instead places the square in West. There are 13 buildings on the list on the blocks between 18th and 20th streets.
Actually, we could rename Rittenhouse Square East to just Rittenhouse Square, and Rittenhouse Square West to Fitler Square? That's more consistent with current usage, in my experience. The only problem is it leaves out the few northern buildings from around Chestnut to Market west of 21st (e.g. First Troop Philadelphia Cavalry Armory), I'm not sure if there is a common name for that neighborhood.
Please post any thoughts here! Cheers Cstanford.math (talk) 06:06, 20 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
