Cambridge Street


Cambridge Street, also known as Cambridge Avenue, begins at the Delaware River in what was once the Pavonia section, now considered part of Cramer Hill. It runs eastward, crossing Harrison Avenue, Pierce Avenue, Wayne Avenue, and River Avenue, before intersecting with North 27th Street, located between North 26th Street and Dupont Street. Along with Dupont Street, it is one of only two east-west streets in Cramer Hill, below North 27th Street, to retain its original name from before 1899, when this area was part of the town of Stockton. That year, Stockton, which included what is now East Camden and Cramer Hill, merged with Camden.
