Notes
  • Significance: St. Petri Evangelical Lutheran Church remains as one of the surviving nineteenth-century religious congregations in Tacony. Like a number of its counterparts, the church was founded after an influx of a particular immigrant group, in this case Germans. Built on what was farmland and still only lightly built-up as late as 1928, the small church building is reminiscent of rural church structures which appeared throughout the more bucolic parts of Philadelphia from the mid-nineteenth-century onward.
