Spring Garden, Southwark, Marblehead and Northern Liberties I have never heard of therefore I did not get those ones. Brooklyn, interesting.

@xolkan fyi - brooklyn, the bronx, queens and staten island did not join together with manhattan fully until almost 1900 (I think it's 1898, will have to check) up until that time they were separate entities with Manhattan and the southern part of what is now the bronx making up "new york city" and brooklyn it's second largest neighbor. it's why the poem "the new colossus" (give me your tired your poor) talks about twin cities spanning the harbor - its talking about new york city and brooklyn

It's funny that if you were standing in Northern Liberties today and didn't realize it that you would think you were still in downtown Philadelphia. Also you would be checking your billfold frequently.
2011-10-22 | reply
Great quiz! I'm from Philly and forgot that Northern Liberties and Southwark became part of the city in 1854.
