1854 Germantown Ave Unidad 1

Not to be confused with Northeast Philadelphia, North Philadelphia East encompasses the smaller subsets of Ludlow, Yorktown, West Kensington, Poplar, and Callowhill. This composite area runs from the Vine Street Expressway, stretching north to Erie Avenue. Broad Street acts as its eastern border, and the western edge runs a jagged line separating North Philadelphia East from the nearby Kensington, Port Richmond, and Fishtown neighborhoods. With such a long stretch of city, the neighborhood offers a diverse blend of important city landmarks, such as renowned musical venues the Electric Factory and Union Transfer, and Temple University, North Philadelphia's premiere site of higher learning.
