The Edgar Allan Poe National Historic Site is a preserved home once rented by American author Edgar Allan Poe, located in the Spring Garden neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Though Poe lived in many houses over several years in Philadelphia (1837 to 1844), it is the only one which still survives.〔Haas, Irvin. ''Historic Homes of American Authors''. Washington, DC: The Preservation Press, 1991: 183–185. ISBN 0-89133-180-8〕 ==Poe's time in Philadelphia== Poe lived in several homes in Philadelphia, including homes on Arch Street, on Sixteenth Street near Locust, and on Coates Street near Twenty-Fifth Street.〔Oberholtzer, Ellis Paxson. ''The Literary History of Philadelphia''. Philadelphia: George W. Jacobs & Co., 1906: 286. ISBN 1-932109-45-5〕 While living in Philadelphia, Poe published some of his most well-known works, including "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," and "The Gold-Bug".〔Haas, Irvin. ''Historic Homes of American Authors''. Washington, DC: The Preservation Press, 1991: 183. ISBN 0-89133-180-8〕 It has been called his most prolific period.〔Ehrlich, Eugene and Gorton Carruth. ''The Oxford Illustrated Literary Guide to the United States''. New York: Oxford University Press, 1982: 209. ISBN 0-19-503186-5〕 In all, Poe published 31 stories during his time in Philadelphia〔Silverman, Kenneth. ''Edgar A. Poe: Mournful and Never-ending Remembrance''. New York: Harper Perennial, 1991: 209. ISBN 0-06-092331-8〕 as well as several literary criticism pieces, including his February 1841 review of Charles Dickens's novel ''Barnaby Rudge: A Tale of the Riots of 'Eighty''. In reviewing the novel, which later inspired Poe's poem "The Raven", he correctly predicted the novel's resolution before its final serialized installment was published. Dickens is said to have remarked, "The man must be the devil".〔 Poe's five years in the city have been described as the happiest of his life.〔Oberholtzer, Ellis Paxson. ''The Literary History of Philadelphia''. Philadelphia: George W. Jacobs & Co., 1906: 285. ISBN 1-932109-45-5〕
