Historic Rittenhouse Town profiled by WHYY TV’s Experience program
WHYY’s Experience program has just profiled Philadelphia’s National Historic Landmark District Rittenhouse Town. This is where William Rittenhouse founded the first paper mill in British North America. The site still has six of the original 45 buildings that were in the village, which was established in 1690. It’s a perfect place to go to walk into the Early American industrial age. It is located at 206 Lincoln Drive in Philadelphia.
