Newbold is a fabricated neighborhood located in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States.

Developer John Longacre (owner of the South Philadelphia Taproom, American Sardine Bar, Brew, 2nd District, and Renewbold) dubbed this section of the Point Breeze neighborhood as "Newbold" in 2003. Longacre’s marketing tactic drew inspiration for the name from the original name of Hicks Street. Soon he formed the Newbold CDC and a civic association, which gave rise to other area civic groups.
