History

Before being known as Queen Village, this region was a part of “New Sweden”, an area inhabited by the indigenous Lenni Lenapi tribe along with English, Dutch and Swedish settlers. Because of a land charter granted to William Penn in 1681, New Sweden became a part of Philadelphia, and was renamed “Southwark”, a district in London that William Penn was fond of.

Despite William Penn’s plan of settling the city from east-to-west, many new residents preferred staying close to the Delaware River, and would go no further west than 4^th Street. Quickly, Queen Village became a thriving community, and by 1830, became home to 20,000 Philadelphians. Because of their proximity to the river, many residents were ship builders and mariners as well as factory workers. Many also worked as weavers and tailors, who set up shop on 4^th Street in Queen Village, known today as “Fabric Row”.

The Community Today

Today, Queen Village is known for its rich heritage and gorgeous row homes, many of which are the original structures from the 18^th century. Residents of this district have easy access to much of Philadelphia’s entertainment and night life including South Street, as well as many popular bars and restaurants in Center City.
