At the intersection of City Ave (Route 1) and Lancaster Ave (Route 30) is Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary -- home of the great big cross that welcomed the visiting Pope John Paul II in Logan Circle in 1979. A happy accident of signage and placement put the current location of the giant cross at an intersection labeled S1N City.
