Olde Richmond

While some refer to Olde Richmond as "Port Richmond", this is a misnomer. There is a neighboring community called Port Richmond, which is located to the northeast of East Lehigh Avenue. Although similar in name, the communities do differ, and there are many reasons for the confusion. (One example includes the seemingly erroneously named "Port Richmond Village" shopping center located at York Street and Aramingo Avenue. The shopping center is not located in Port Richmond and is not a village.) Some area residents refer to a small section or portion of Olde Richmond as "Cione", which refers to the Cione Playground and Recreation Center, which is located at 2600 Aramingo Avenue. Adjacent neighborhoods are Port Richmond to the northeast, Kensington to the northwest, and Fishtown to the south/southwest.
