minor adjustment
while trying to develop a game plan for visiting the 17 neighborhoods that make up center city, i hit a snag. it turns out that the "museum district" actually encompasses three smaller neighborhoods: spring garden, fairmount, and franklinville. technically, franklinville (a small triangle bordered by w. sedgley, n. broad, and w. hunting park) isn't recognized as a neighborhood anymore, so i'm willing to let that one slide, but spring garden (north of the parkway to fairmount and from broad to the schuylkill) and fairmount (fairmount avenue to poplar, and from the schuylkill to 19th) are definitely their own neighborhoods, and, since i wouldn't feel right clumping them together as the "museum district," this brings the grand total number of neighborhoods to 168.
