Editorial Review for Old City – by Lauren McCutcheon
In Short
Chock-full of historic sites and folks in horse-drawn carriages, this visitor-friendly district boasts two Ben Franklin impersonators--and some of the best new boutiques in town. Old City is also district for art galleries, as well as a popular destination for dining and bar hopping. Clothing shops cater to a dichotomy of young shoppers, from trendy types seeking sparkly halter tops and capris to indie rockers in search of ringer Ts and '80s jean skirts.
