Historic Cliveden presents a Second Saturday tour

Saturday, July 11, 2026, 10:30AM to 1:30PM

The tour will be led by Adam Levine, an Oliver Evans chapter member, who gave us a gallery tour of his Lost Creeks and Sewers of Philadelphia exhibit at the Athenaeum.

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 will take place rain or shine.
