Fitch’s Shop
Nearby, Lt. John Fitch, official State Armourer, operated a gunshop during the Revolution. It was damaged by the Hessians in 1776. On the Delaware, in 1790, he operated the first commercial steamboat that ran on a regular, advertised schedule.
Marker is on North Warren Street 0.1 miles south of Bank Street, on the right when traveling south.
