Overview

 

Summary

The so-called Twelve-Mile Circle is not actually a circle but the compound arcs of two or more different circles that have been imperceptibly feathered together to form most of the boundary between the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of Delaware in the United States. It is nominally a circle with a supposed — yet in fact only approximate and variable — twelve-mile radius, centered in the town of New Castle, Delaware. More information...

    • Marble Hill is the northernmost section of the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, United States. Marble Hill is part of the borough of Manhattan (and New York County) but is located on the North American mainland, not on Manhattan Island. Because of its geography, Marble Hill is often associated with the Bronx. Broadway is the area’s primary thoroughfare. At the end of the 20th century national retailers opened outlets in the neighborhood.

    • The Missouri Bootheel is the southeasternmost part of the state of Missouri and is called the "Bootheel" because of the shape of its boundaries. Strictly speaking, it is composed of the counties of Dunklin, New Madrid, and Pemiscot, but the term is sometimes broadly used to refer to the entire southeastern corner of the state.
    • The Erie Triangle is a tract of American land that was the subject of several competing colonial-era claims and which was eventually acquired by the U.S. federal government and sold to Pennsylvania so that the state would have access to a freshwater port on Lake Erie. The Erie Triangle land makes up a large portion of present-day Erie County, Pennsylvania. Most of northwestern Pennsylvania came under Anglo-American control following the 1784 Treaty of Fort Stanwix with the Iroquois Confederacy.

It is the extreme southwestern corner of Kentucky.

    • The Wedge (or Delaware Wedge) is a small tract of land along the borders of Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
