West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Details

History

West Philadelphia has been around pretty much since the founding of America. Its population began to boom during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, however, thanks to new inventions that were continually being introduced in the North. This includes horsecars and street cars, which explains the beautiful tree lined roads that residents enjoy today. One of the largest hospitals for the Union Army during the Civil War, Satterlee Hospital, was in operation here from 1862 to 1865. That location is now home to a portion of Clark Park. This alone demonstrates the history that residents of this area enjoy at every turn.
