Oxford Circle, Philadelphia
[2] Oxford Circle is also the colloquial name for the nearby Summerdale neighborhood, which is located west of Roosevelt Boulevard, opposite the city's Frankford section.Oxford Circle's boundaries (including Castor Gardens) seem to have a general basis in the course of three creeks which were part of the landscape long before the development of the neighborhood.[4] Most of the brick and stone row houses which characterize this neighborhood today were built by the Hyman Korman Company starting in the early 1940s and continuing into the 1950s.Today's Oxford Circle is inhabited by a diverse population, including Caucasian, Jewish, Koreans, Hispanics (mostly Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, and Brazilians), West Indians (mostly Haitians), and African Americans.In the state senate, it is represented by Christine Tartaglione and John P. Sabatina Jr. Its city council members are Cherelle Parker, Bobby Henon and Maria Quinones-Sanchez.
