Quick History Stops: Philadelphia, PA, Part 4
This is the fourth and final post in my miniseries on my quick history stops in Philadelphia, along with my last post about the city. The first part covered a bank building, a Quaker meeting house, a fire station dedicated to Benjamin Franklin, a cemetery, and a very old alley. The second part covered a historic house possibly belonging to a Founding Mother, commercial buildings from the Industrial Revolution, and a courtyard showcasing local history. The third part covered a bicentennial speech from an unlikely speaker, a publishing company, a preservation society, a religious statue, an historic athletic facilities, and a diner. This post will include fun facts from my favorite informational signs and how some facts relate to past articles on the blog.
