  • Spotlight Tour: Wingohocking Watershed Tour

    Cliveden 6401 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Our bus tour of the Wingohocking Watershed, led by Adam Levine, Philadelphia Water Department historical consultant and webmaster of WaterHistoryPHL.org, will give you a view of the underbelly of the city that you might never have thought about before. On the tour you’ll learn all about the city’s hidden infrastructure, including the many creeks like the Wingohocking that were buried in sewers, and learn why some streams still run on the surface today. Weather permitting, we’ll have opportunities to explore parts of the watershed on foot, so please wear appropriate footwear. The tour will begin and end at Cliveden and
