Countless visitors have walked into the Pennsylvania State House in Philadelphia. There, it’s easy to imagine the founding fathers sitting in the Windsor chairs or standing around tables equipped with silver inkstands and quills. In this surprisingly small room, they hashed out the wording of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Greats such as Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, John Adams, and John Hancock were among many who met and debated in what’s now referred to as Independence Hall.
Another notable figure who actually lived and worked a few blocks from the important American structure was Benjamin Franklin.
