214 Rittenhouse

Spring 2026

One neighborhood, one home, one place forms a tiny cosmology, a full universe of meaning and possibility. 214 Rittenhouse follows the memories of one family who all lived within blocks of each other in the late 1950s through the early 1990s. The oral history captures the sense of a neighborhood, the men and women who filled its homes, and the community that once was.
