The one that is most readily recognized is the simple 'Philly' which has gained almost universal acceptance. The nickname 'City of Brotherly Love' is also popular and well known and it has also been known as the 'Cradle of Liberty' and 'The Birthplace of America' and to a lesser extent as 'The Quker City' and 'The City of Neighborhoods'.

There is no Embassy in Philadelphia. Embassies usually are in the capital of a country (in this case Washington D.C.)

There maybe could be a consulate in Philadelphia. But considering that Washington D.C. is not far away I doubt it. You can find a map with French consulates and the link to their webpages at http://www.ambafrance-us.org/spip.php?rubrique=2 (bottom)


But if you want to contact the French embassy in Washington D.C., the general email is info@ambafrance-us.org.

Yes Philadelphia is the oldest and sigificant cities in the U.S

The actual flying time between London and Paris depends on the specific route and airline that is used. The average flying time between these two locations ranges from 55 minutes and 1 hour and 20 minutes.

It's not always dark and cold in Pennsylvania. But it's more so in the winter months. The summer months can go from warm to hot and humid. Half of the fall and winter months can be dreary and wet while the other half can be icy and snowy. But Pennsylvania is still considered on average to have warm summers and cold winters.

This is an approximate direct (straight line) distance. During actual travel, this distance may change if a different flight route is chosen.

The distance between the two places in miles is: 1305

Not too long. I have done it many times. On Amtrak trains, the ride is about 100 minutes (1 hour and 40 minutes).

Because when it was founded by William Penn he named it Philadelphia which means "City of Brotherly Love" in Greek.

• Smedley Darlington Butler, Major General, USMC who won the Medal of Honor at Vera Cruz Mexico in 1914, his second in 1915 in Haiti and because of the rules in place at the time (as a Marine Corps Officer he was inelligible to receive the Medal of Honor) he was awarded the Marine Corps Brevet Medal (only twenty were ever issued) which was the highest possible award to a Marine Officer for his service during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. Mark that down as three (3) Medals of Honor, for three different engagements. (They called him the fighting Quaker.)
• James Buchanan the 15th President of the US.

The distance between Philadelphia and New York City is approximately 80.5 miles, so that means it would take about an hour and 20 minutes to reach New York City driving at an average of just about 60 miles per hour.

About 208 miles, or 334 kilometers as the crow flies, meaning a direct and straight path.

1. Take I-476 (Northeast Ext of Pennsylvania Turnpike) (toll) NORTH to I-81 towards BINGHAMTON and WILKES-BARRE. You want I-81 NORTH towards BINGHAMTON.

In a word, no. Ironically, Scranton has not had rail service in about 40 years despite its Electric City and Steamtown railroad history! The New Jersey Transit proposal to restore passenger rail service between Scranton, PA and New York City via the Lackawanna Cut-Off was approved by the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA) in 2008. If this track is ever restored in the next decade or so, you could go from Philadelphia to Scranton via New Jersey.

The driving distance between Scranton, PA and Philadelphia, PA is 125 miles. The driving time would be approximately 2 hours if you were to drive non-stop in good conditions. (The driving time does not take into consideration conditions such as weather, road work and rush hour traffic in urban areas.)

being less than 150 miles it would not take long at all. I'm not sure if you are talking about a commercial airliner or not. Most of the time would be spent in the terminal and taxing. Either way I would drive instead it's cheaper and at least as fast.

There is an App called Tolls USA (on iTunes store) that calculates tolls anywhere in the USA between two addresses/points on the map.
