Elfreth's Alley
image
Elfreth's Alley, Philadelphia
Elfreth's Alley is one of Philadelphia's oldest and longest-surviving working class neighborhoods. The alleyway was opened in 1702 by John Gilbert and Arthur Wells, two property owners who combined their land at the property line to create a small subdivision in the interior of one of William Penn's great blocks. Today there are 32 homes lining the alley built between 1728 and 1836, and they form one of the last intact 18th century streetscapes in the nation. The Alley has been home to more than 3,000 people over the last 300 years - ordinary men and women who lived and worked in sometimes dirty, dangerous, and crowded conditions.
