Description
This walk will be historic! First, stop for lunch at the food court at the Shops at Liberty Place, packed with a dozen affordable food options. Then, head to 1300 Locust Street to see a specially-curated display of historical artifacts at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania (HSP): pieces that focus on the history of transit and mass transportation, as well as several documents that have incredible significance to the city, state and country. Hear from HSP volunteers the stories of people often left out of history books. You’ll be glad to discover HSP, one of the country's largest collections of archives, historical documents, manuscripts, books, and graphic images.
