As its name suggests, Old City is where you’ll find some of the oldest things in the country. For instance, there’s Elfreth’s Alley, the oldest residential street and Shane Confectionery, the oldest candy shop. Living here, you’ll be neighboring the iconic Liberty Bell, Penn’s Landing, Independence Hall, the National Constitution Center and so many other Philadelphia treasures. The neighborhood is a true testament to the city’s history, with its cobblestone streets and old-fashioned buildings.
