Sinopsis

Excerpt from Philadelphia and Its Environs

Even, however, after becoming aware that his cherished water-front must be devoted to business rather than pleasure, he could scarcely have forecast the busy scene which it now presents. Besides the piers and wharves in the extreme lower portion of the city for the accommodation of the coal, oil, and grain industries that are congregated there, a continuous range of slips, wharves, docks, and piers line the Delaware's edge from below Washington Avenue to above Richmond. Delaware Avenue, which runs immediately along the river, presents one of the busiest scenes to be found in the city.
