Society Hill (Body of Proof)

Society Hill is the setting for much of the ABC television series Body of Proof, starring Dana Delany. While Body of Proof is filmed in Providence, Rhode Island, the show is nominally set in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, specifically in the historic neighborhood of Society Hill.

In the show, Dr. Megan Hunt (Delany) works as a medical examiner in Philadelphia. Society Hill, with its characteristic architecture and proximity to the Delaware River waterfront, is often depicted in exterior shots and is referenced in the show's dialogue to establish the setting's geographical context. The neighborhood's affluent and historical character provides a backdrop for the crimes and investigations featured in the series. Although the show doesn't focus exclusively on crimes occurring within Society Hill, it serves as an identifiable and visually distinct location to ground the narrative in Philadelphia.
