Explore the rich history of Spruce Street, a historic thoroughfare with connections to various cities across the Atlantic. From Manchester's M15 and Rochdale's OL16, to Glasgow's G22 and Bolton's BL0 9, Spruce Street's influence extends beyond its Philadelphia location. In the 19th century, it was home to the Associate Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia and the Richard Young Co. Leather advertisement in New York City. The bustling area, once depicted in a 1799 line engraving as the Philadelphia Alms House, continues to be a vibrant part of the urban landscape, with its boundaries once marked by Broadway, Park Row, Spruce Street, Gold Street, and Liberty Street.
