What are the boundaries to the Far Northeast, a neighborhood in Philadelphia?
It is the most northeastern part of Philadelphia bordered by the Pennypack and Poquessing Creeks, and the Delaware River. Before the 1854 Consolidation Act, this area consisted of the Townships of Lower Dublin, Moreland, Delaware and Byberry. The Consolidation Act of 1854 is when the city and the county of Philadelphia became what we know today.
