This historic armory is an established Philadelphia institution. It is home to the First Troop Philadelphia City Cavalry since 1900. Founded in 1774, The Troop continues to serve; this is an active armory for a Pennsylvania National Guard Cavalry Troop. Until the 1940’s, the Troop was mounted. As the army mechanized during World War II, the ring was paved, and horses replaced with mechanized vehicles. The full space is available for event rentals. Contact Daniel J. McCormick, Adjutant, First Troop Philadelphia City Cavalry, 215- 564-1488. 23rdstreetarmory.org.
