Rowhomes Quotes

“The two-story dwellings of this city are, beyond all question, the best, as a system, not only owing to the
single family ideas they represent, but because their cost is within the reach of all who desire to own
their own homes. They have done more to elevate and to make a better home life than any other known
influence. They typify a higher civilization, as well as a truer idea of American home life, and are better,
purer, sweeter than any tenement house systems that ever existed. They are what make Philadelphia
a city of homes, and command the attention of visitors from every quarter of the globe”
