24th Street
Twenty-Fourth Street begins in what was originally called the Pavonia section of what is now considered Cramer Hill and ends in East Camden at Marlton Avenue. The street had already been laid out by the time the 1887–1888 Camden City Directory was published and was known as Union Street. The street begins at Harrison Avenue and runs south, across River Avenue to the Pavonia railroad switching yard, then to Federal Street, then to Marlton Avenue. As in all numbered streets in Camden, it is North 24th Street above Federal Street, and South 24th Street below it.
