Unique venues in Philly area

Hi all, I'm looking for some ideas for unique wedding venues in the Philadelphia area.  We have looked at Artesano Iron Works in Manayunk and really like the space, but are interested in researching other options.  Does anyone have recommendations for places that have a similar feel to Iron Works or any other place that is different from your traditional ballroom, perhaps other art galleries or theaters??
 
Thanks !!

    You may want to check out Waterworks in the city. I was there for a work party a few months ago and thought it was a great space. It's a restaurant with a lot of outdoor area that looks over Boathouse Row and the river.

    Our wedding is at Artesano, so I was going to suggest that, but I'd also recommend:

    TRUST - the former Real World House.  It's a 2 story gallery, blank slate, which you would basically transform to make it look exactly as you want.  My FSIL had her wedding there - amazing!

    There is also the Chestnut Club.  It is a raw space on chestnut street.  Brick Walls, etc.  Pretty nice.  Near 17th or so?
