Old City is Philadelphia's historic waterfront neighborhood, where cobblestone streets and 18th-century buildings sit alongside contemporary art galleries and trendy restaurants. It encompasses the greatest concentration of historic sites in the United States.
Old City was the commercial heart of colonial Philadelphia and the birthplace of the nation. Its decline in the mid-20th century was reversed by the art gallery movement in the 1990s and 2000s, bringing new life to historic buildings.
