It was not always so. Starting Thursday, 36-year Northern Liberties resident Jennifer Baker traces the neighborhood's evolution in a new exhibit at the Philadelphia History Museum. In 1978, when Baker first moved in, the aroma of brewing hops would waft through her window from the Ortlieb's and Schmidt's breweries (both now closed and demolished, the latter the site of the mixed-use apartments at the Piazza). The noxious smells seeping from a nearby tannery served as a reminder that industrial capitalism isn't all good union jobs and cheap American beer.
