Not sure what exactly you mean by "borders." I thought you were referring to the outer city limits but those photos confuse me. Sorry.

That is the is city border of Philadelphia in the picture, the city doesnt really stop just changes municipalities, all cities will look a little different

The pictures are from Upper Darby, Montgomery County looking back at 69th Street where Philadelphia begins on Market Street.

Boston is the bottom. Cambridge is the top. There are probably better pics out there that are not public, but you can just do a search for "Charles river" and find a bunch.

In Los Angeles the border to the west and south is the Pacific Ocean:


To the north are mountains

Don't have any photos of the eastern border but it is just suburban San Gabriel valley
