Description
Philadelphia | PA
In 1682 William Penn chose the left bank of the Schuylkill River upon which he founded the planned city of Philadelphia on lands purchased from the native Delaware nation. It is a designated Pennsylvania Scenic River, and its whole length was once part of the Delaware people's southern territories and the historic and economically impactful Schuylkill Canal
The river was given the Dutch name Schuylkill as kill means "creek" and schuylen means "to hide, skulk" or "to take refuge, shelter". One explanation given for this name is that it translates to "hidden river", "skulking river" or "sheltered creek" and refers to the river's confluence with the Delaware River at League Island.
