Tyler, you are a terrific historian. I lived in Germantown for several years, loved the old buildings, the history of Philadelphia. City of Brotherly Love
I grew up in Germantown. I used to walk past most of the sites you focused on. I lived across the street from Grumblethorpe. In the house where the assassin shot from, in the basement, the first Lutheran Bible was printed.(Germantown Ave. and Queen La.
If you check your history a little deeper I think you will learn that when the Germantown City Hall was built it was not part of the city of Philadelphia. Part of the county yes but outside the city. It was not until sometime in the 1940s or 1950s the the city and the county became the same area. There were quite a few small towns that became part of Philly. Germantown was one as was Roxborough and others. Good series. As a native of the Roxborough area I am enjoying it
Most blessed sacrament parish. The school itself now a charter school. During the 1950s and 60s the students enrollment was over 3000. The largest enrollment in the world. 56th Chester avenue. Septa route 13 trolley going past the church. The church is still there.
Ich bereue den Schlag, den ich erlitten habe, nicht. Ich mag vor meinem Gott, aber nicht vor den Menschen. Ich denke, ich habe es gut gemacht, obwohl ich verlassen bin. Mit dem Fluch Kains auf mir, wenn die Welt mein Herz gekannt hätte, hätte mich dieser einzige Schlag groß gemacht, obwohl ich keine Größe begehrte

Great Job Tyler!!! Great information... Loved it!!!
Brings back memories , thanks .
Thank you Tyler and Captain! Now I want to go to Germantown when I visit my cousins in Philly. :)
The cannons used at the time were only one pounders basically ineffective was fired at the front doors of cliveden the front steps have damage
That old city hall building still makes me upset, such a waste of a building.
4:11 almost looks like the House in Assasins3.
Awesome video! I did about history of Germantown at all until now. So thanks!
Tyler is the best! I had no idea about how important Germantown is.

Following just because of your accent.
If you see me in the streets say hi and I’ll buy ya a wooder
Tyler, The guest Captain :)
What ppl don’t talk about is how haunted it is in area!
You bring up a GREAT point.
Very cool! Can you edit the description to reference the locations to the time stamp?
I don’t know how to do that I’m sorry.
Here's a something you that you know Philly captain. Here we are South West Philly! This is Most blessed sacrament church now boarded up!
Once the largest Catholic grade school in the U.S and world I believe back in 1964/65.
Joe, me and you once this is all over should meet up with the captain and do one of Southwest
North Philly next 😁
I've done a few places in North Philly already. The church of the advocate and the campus of Temple.
The Philly Captain I'll have to go back and search. Must of missed it 👍
