Wissinoming: River Wards and Northeast Philadelphia
Wissinoming is a Northeast Philadelphia neighborhood along the Delaware River, bounded roughly by Tacony to the north, Frankford to the west, and Bridesburg to the south. The name derives from the Lenape language and has been in use for the area since the colonial era. Frankford Avenue and Torresdale Avenue pass through the neighborhood, with smaller streets running on the cross grid back toward the river.
Industrial activity along the Delaware shaped Wissinoming's development through the twentieth century. Roofing, paint, and chemical manufacturers operated facilities in the neighborhood for decades, including a Rohm and Haas chemical plant that closed in the 2000s. The residential portions of the neighborhood consist primarily of two-story brick rowhomes and small twin houses built between the 1910s and the 1940s. Wissinoming Park, a 33-acre Fairmount Park property, provides the largest public green space.
Wissinoming belongs to the River Wards section of Northeast Philadelphia, with Aramingo Avenue and State Road functioning as the primary through-corridors linking the area to Bridesburg and Tacony. The Delaware River waterfront lies immediately adjacent, and a mix of active and former manufacturing sites continues to line the industrial zone between the residential blocks and the river. Wissinoming Park remains the main green space serving residents on a daily basis.
