"Old City is one of the most romantic and charming neighborhoods in Philadelphia! Galleries spill open for First Friday, the piers on the waterfront are bustling with yoga, activities and markets in the summertime, and fine art + theater art abounds, as do Indie film showings. It’s the cobblestone heart of historic Philadelphia, rich with culture, museums, the regular colonial actor encounter, and some delicious restaurants. It’s downfall: not the best in terms of gyms of grocery stores! "
