This walking tour will feature homes and gardens found within the Tulpehocken Station Historic District, one of Philadelphia’s first ‘suburban’ neighborhoods. Featuring properties dating from the late 1840s through the 1880s, it’s your opportunity to see some of Philadelphia’s finest examples of Victorian eclecticism, Gothic revival, Italianate revival, Queen Anne, Tudor revival, Second Empire and Colonial Revival, as well as gardens that have been years in designing.
This event is organized by West Central Germantown Neighbors and promoted by the Preservation Alliance for Greater Philadelphia, which is hosting ticket registration.
