OLD CITY
Explore colonial Philadelphia and walk some of its original streets. See famous Elfreth’s Alley, the oldest continuously occupied street in the US, and experience the walking/mercantile city, as well as a later generation of Victorian structures. Learn how this area remained the center of Philadelphia’s commercial, retail and governmental activities until the city finally moved “westward” to Center Square in the mid/late 19th century.

Meet at the benches near Elfreth’s Alley and N. 2nd Street (map).

Free for children 10 and under accompanied by an adult.

Space is limited. Advance registration strongly recommended.
