Philadelphia is the city which belongs to every American as part of the
great heritage left him by the Founding Fathers. Here are Independence
Hall, Carpenters Hall, the Betsy Ross House and many very old houses of
worship. A green Mall sets off the State House, home of the famed
Liberty Bell.
William Penn’s original “greene, countrie towne” has risen again, not as
an open air museum of antiquity alone, but as a living center of one of
the world’s greatest cities.
