Early Tradition of Commerce

The building of larger homes was prompted by the large number of clothiers who settled here in the 1830’s. Weavers and tailors prospered alongside mariners and machinists. A large number of ship building firms established themselves along the riverfront. The area has long been important in the realm of defense manufacturing. Many of the munitions used in the War of 1812 came from this district. The U.S. Naval Shipyard was established south of Washington Avenue. Today, Queen Village is a wonderful spot to seek out real estate bargains and luxury homes.

Queen Village Lifestyle

William Penn envisioned an orderly growth for the area from east to west, but settlers preferred to live either close to the river or just north and south of downtown. To lure people into Queen Village, developers built large numbers of wood homes that could be bought cheaply. This violated city ordinances which had banned wood houses after disastrous fires had damaged portions of the city. A few of these wood plank homes can be seen in the 100 block of League Street, the 200 block of Christian Street, and the 800 block of Hancock Street.
 
Queen Village was also culturally at odds with the city. Quakers controlled Philadelphia at the time, and they forbade the establishment of theaters. Queen Village provided them with real estate on which to operate. The first playhouse was built at 1766 South Street.
