What To Expect

Every building in Philadelphia has a story to tell. The materials, technology, and styles in vogue, when these buildings were constructed, might reveal one story, while the people who designed, built, lived, and worked in them often add a narrative of their own. Come with me on this walking tour to hear about the events that took place in and around Philadelphia’s Old City buildings. Along the way, I’ll tell you about the individuals who shaped the city from its beginnings to American Independence.
