Elfreth's Alley


Located in Philadelphia's historical Old City neighborhood, Elfreth's Alley is a National Historic Landmark and the oldest residential street in America. In the midst of the eclectic art galleries, coffee shops, and great restaurants, the 33 houses in Elfreth's Alley were built prior to our nation’s birth.
Thousands of visitors to stroll along the cobblestone street each year and look at the amazing 18th century homes, which are still private residences today. Elfreth's Alley is a National Historic Landmark District, and one of the first districts that celebrates the lives of Americans past and present.
