Little Saigon, Philadelphia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Little Saigon, Philadelphia
One of the largest Vietnamese neighborhoods in Philadelphia is centered on the intersection of Eighth Street and Washington Avenue in South Philadelphia with "one of the largest Vietnamese populations on the east coast." and is a district where "... neon signs lure shoppers into grocery stores, restaurants and karaoke bars set back from the street in low-rise concrete strip malls. Shoppers pushing carts laden with rice noodles, bean cakes and imported spices and sauces pack suburban-style parking lots behind the complexes." The author further states that the Vietnamese are now (as of 2013) the largest ethnic community in the Washington Avenue/Italian Market section of the city and is larger than the Vietnamese community in New York City.〔 Southwest Philadelphia, and Northeast Philadelphia also contain Vietnamese American neighborhoods; meanwhile, the Vietnamese community has additionally expanded eastward across the Delaware River to Camden and Cherry Hill in New Jersey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vietnamese )〕 ==Background== According to Ariel Dilberto, a Temple University anthropology scholar, "... the strip malls are typical of Vietnamese business communities across the U.S." Dilberto points out that the architecture "... is an idealization of American enterprise among South Vietnamese frustrated under communism and inspired by the 'simple, geometric high-rise buildings' constructed in Vietnamese towns and cities during the Vietnam war."〔 Unlike other Vietnamese enclaves in the US, "... there’s no gaudy, generically 'Asian' archway entreating the passersby to explore, just a string of unannounced shopping malls and a smattering of nearby businesses integrated into the ever-evolving immigrant territory of the Italian Market and the building materials bazaar along Washington Avenue."〔
