Built in 1702, Philadelphia's Elfreth's Alley, pictured above, is America's oldest street. As the first capital of the United States, Philadelphia is the site of the most historic square mile in all America. Between 1713 and 1811, homes were built along the street, and remain privately owned and occupied today, with one of the structures housing the Elfreth's Alley Museum.
