I might entirely refer you to the Letters of the President of the Society but this I will venture to say Your Provincial Settlements both within without the Town for Scituation and Soil are without Exception Your City-Lot is an whole Street and one side of a Street from River to River containing near one hundred Acers not easily valued which is besides your four hundred Acres in the City Liberties part of your twenty thousand Acers in the Countery Your Tannery hath such plenty of Bark the Saw-Mill for Timber the place of the Glass house so conveniently posted for Water-carriage the City-Lot for a Dock and the Whalery for a sound and fruitful Bank and the Town Lewis by it to help your People that by Gods blessing the Affairs of the Society will naturally grow in their Reputation and Profit I am sure I have not turned my back upon any Offer that tended to its Prosperity and though I am ill at Projects I have sometimes put in for a Share with her Officers to countenance and advance her Interest You are already informed what is fit for you further to do whatsoever tends to the Promotion of Wine and to the Manufacture of Linnen in these parts I cannot but wish you to promote it and the French People are most likely in both respects to answer that design To that end I would advise you to send for some Thousands of Plants out of France with some able Vinerons and People of the other Vocation But because I believe you have been entertained with this and some other profitable Subjects by your President I shall add no more but to assure you that I am heartily inclined to advance your just Interest and that you will always find me Philadelphia the 16th of the 6th Moneth call'd August 1683. Your Kind Cordial Friend William Penn. A short Advertisement Upon the Scituation and Extent of the CITY of PHILADELPHIA And the Ensuing PLAT-FORM thereof By the Surveyor General THe City of Philadelphia now extends in Length from River to River two Miles and in Breadth near a Mile and the Governour as a further manifestation of his Kindness to the Purchasers hath freely given them their respective Lots in the City without defalcation of any their Quantities of purchased Lands and as it s now placed and modelled between two Navigable Rivers upon a Neck of Land and that Ships may ride in good Anchorage in six or eight Fathom Water in both Rivers close to to the City and the Land of the City level dry and wholsom such a Scituation is scarce to be parallel'd The Model of the City appears by a small Draught now made and may hereafter when time permits be augmented and because there is not room to express the Purchasers Names in the Draught I have therefore drawn Directions of Reference by way of Numbers whereby may be known each mans Lot and Place in the City The City is so ordered now by the Governour 's Care and Prudence that it hath a Front to each River one half at Delaware the other at Skulkill and though all this cannot make way for small Purchasers to be in the Fronts yet they are placed in the next Streets contiguous to each Front viz. all Purchasers of One Thousand Acres and upwards have the Fronts and the High-street and to every five Thousand Acres Purchase in the Front about an Acre and the smaller Purchasers about half an Acre in the backward Streets by which means the least hath room enough for House Garden and small Orchard to the great Content and Satisfaction of all here concerned The City as the Model shews consists of a large Front-street to each River and a High-street near the middle from Front or River to Front of one hundred Foot broad and a Broad-street in the middle of the City from side to side of the like breadth In the Center of the City is a Square of ten Acres at each Angle are to be Houses for publick Affairs as a Meeting-House Assembly or State-House Market-House School-House and several other Buildings for Publick Concerns There are also in each Quarter of the City a Square of eight Acres to be for the like Uses as the Moore-fields in London and eight Streets besides the High-street that run from Front to Front and twenty Streets besides the Broad-street that run cross the City from side to side all these Streets are of fifty Foot breadth In each Number in the Draught in the Fronts and High-street are placed the Purchasers of One Thousand Acres and upwards to make up five Thousand Acres Lot both in the said Fronts and Hightstreet and the Numbers direct to each Lot and where in the City so that thereby they may know where their Concerns are therein The Front Lots begin at the South-ends of the Fronts by the Numbers and so reach to the North-ends and end at Number 43. The High-street Lots begin towards the Fronts at Number 44. and so reach to the Center The lesser Purchasers begin at Number 1. in the second Streets and so proceed by the Numbers as in the Draught the biggest of them being first placed nearest to the Fronts Directions of Reference in the City-Draught of Philadelphia to the Lots of the Purchasors c. by way of Numbers being too small to insert their Names so that by the Numbers the Lots may be known The Purchasors from a 1000 Acres and upwards are placed in the Fronts and High-Streets and begin on Delaware-Front at the South-end with Number 1. and so proceed with the Front to the North end to Number 43.
