Please Note: This home is what they call a Trinity Home, which means the staircase is very narrow and steep, please read that again, you might think of it as a spiral staircase, its full of charm, but is definitely not for the faint of heart. Did you know that Philadelphia's Trinity Houses are the original Tiny Home? Sure, the city welcomes visitors—come see the Liberty Bell or Love Park. Have a cheesesteak. But Philadelphians do not really do these things; Philadelphians know that the roast pork and broccoli rabe sandwich, another Philadelphia-Italian creation, is the superior sandwich. Philadelphians head to Fairmount Park, a gigantic urban park a whopping ten times bigger than New York’s Central Park. And when New Yorkers crow about their brownstones, Los Angelenos boast of their bungalows, and Chicagoans brag of their glittery and schizophrenic architecture, Philadelphians do not chime in with talk of their own homegrown creation. These structures, called “trinity houses,” are typically very small three- or four-floor townhouses of well under a thousand square feet in which, bizarrely, each individual floor contains only one room, connected by a spiral staircase. (The name comes from the classic three floors and three rooms, plus Philadelphia’s extensive Catholic history: the father, son, and holy ghost house.) These small dwellings are fantastically on-trend: small, full of history and character.
