“… Marsh Street (Present-Day Ellen Street)…” — Judson Kratzer & Paul Schopp, MARBLE (Feb. 2008)

 Judson Kratzer, Principal Investigator, and Paul Schopp, Historian, wrote: 

“The Nineteenth Century at the Subject Property. The Delaware Riverfront and East and West side of Penn Street between Marsh Street (Present-Day Ellen Street) and Shackamaxon Street.” 

WRONG. Marsh Street became Poplar Street, not Ellen Street. Marsh/Poplar Street is 450 feet south of Ellen Street.

Kratzer and Schopp are off by 450 feet. Yet another example of their poor research and mapping skills.
