THE MAIN LINE OF PUBLIC WORKS
Between 1834-1857, how would you get your wagon-load of goods from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh when there were all those mountains and rivers in between?
Tom Witt, long-time member of Science & Art, will discuss the adventures of traveling West between 1834 and 1857 with emphasis on the Belmont Plane and the Allegheny Portage Railroad.
Did you know that the Philadelphia Museum of Art and The Philadelphian Condominiums are located firmly on the the Main Line?
Delicious treats to follow!
