"Origin of the Grid"

South Front Street is quaint and brick lined. It's a great spot to view the Delaware River from, as it runs parallel to this street. The parking opportunities are ample, and the vibe is friendly enough. It's the origin of the numbered streets, and takes the place of a "first street". It's quiet enough, and there are plenty of businesses. I get a great feeling of isolation whenever I walk this street during the day. At night it can be pretty romantic, or pretty creepy, depending on which portion you view. Use common sense, and above all else, use safety measures. This goes for any street, but especially one this close to major highways and the river. You never know what you'll find, but that's part of this street's charm.
