Elfreth's
This week’s photo is “Elfreth’s”. Elfreth’s Alley is billed as “the nation’s oldest street” — it’s a National Historic Landmark with homes built between 1702 and 1836. Almost all of the homes on the street (which is still accessible to auto traffic) are private homes (there is a museum); the residents keep the outward facades as close to the historic original as they can.So, if you’re in Philly and you’ve seen the big sights, you might want to swing on over to the alley and check it out.
