New York City isn't the only town with a park dedicated to the father of our country, and Philly's Washington Square goes all the way back to 1682! This beautiful slice of green space is only steps from the hustle and bustle of busy Independence National Historic Park and provides a tranquil refuge for city residents and visitors alike. Our walk highlights the history of the square including William Penn's vision, visits by our Nation's founding fathers, never forgotten revolutionary war heroes, the Yellow Fever tragedy, early African American celebrations, the first aerial flight in the New World, Philly's own NASA mission, a glorious publishing era, fantastic architectural heritage and so much more.... TOUR MEETS in front of the Independence Visitor Center - corner 6th & Market Streets-2 hours.
