The Society Hill Civic Association includes the area east of Front Street as part of Society Hill and recognizes residents of the 300 and 400 blocks of Gaskill Street and the 500 block of Front Street (all south of Lombard) as part of Society Hill. Society Hill Map, Society Hill Civic Association, retrieved January 6, 2017; See also SHCA Block Coordinators, Society Hill Civic Association, retrieved January 6, 2017. The inclusion of these few blocks below Lombard Street is consistent with the southern boundaries that designate which buildings are within the Society Hill Historic District, as opposed to the neighborhood of Society Hill.
