Visit PhillyDezember 14, 2011Elfreth’s Alley is well-known to most locals & visitors, but Bladen’s Court is a hidden courtyard off the alley that packs even more punch. Rumors are that it is haunted & a soldier was hung there.
HISTORYAugust 31, 2012Established in 1702, this is known as America’s oldest residential street and today is lined with more than 30 houses, dating from the 1720s to 1830s.
Tom ShakelyAugust 27, 2014Worth a stroll through this historic place; don't bother doing it as part of an organized tour—it's better to do it solo and look up history online.
Kayleigh HarringtonAugust 14, 2017Come early or late to avoid the crowds and get a great photo of this historic street.

visitPAMai 24, 2010rumor has it that when Ben Franklin lived off this tiny cobblestone alley he invented the exterior mirror fixtures, to tip him off on his wife’s arrival and release his paramour(s). Cheeky!
Dan MackMai 24, 2010Sneak down that one alley nearer to front and hang out in Bladen's Court. Chill little cove back there.- The guide book is only $6 and has a good bit of info on every single house.
- Rootless CosmopolitanJuni 30, 2012Oldest residential street in America, Ben Franklin used to live off this street.
While Ben Franklin did not invent the exterior mirror fixtures, he was known to refer to them as "Mother-in-Law Watchers."
Oldest residential street in the country, marred only by the frequent duck boat stops
