Our Hometown History

When Phase One of the Philadelphia History Museum opened on February 15, 2012, we began collecting neighborhood memories from guests in the Philadelphia Voices exhibition, where they are encouraged to record and post a written story on a map of the city. We've decided to launch the blog "Our Hometown History" by sharing these visitor stories, and will be selectively adding to them as our neighborhood map fills-up.  We encourage you to share your own Philadelphia story with us by emailing info@philadelphiahistory.org.
