Tour #One will take you North on Broad Street into North Philadelphia to see sites that are significant to African Americans in Philadelphia. In fact, did you know that there are five (5) sites named after one African American on North Broad Street?? Learn this and more. In addition, Philadelphia is known around the world for having the largest amount of murals. Some of the sites that we point out will include some of these murals.
