Philadelphia's City Hall
Love it or hate it (and folks always seem to feel one way or the other), the City Hall building in Philadelphia is here to stay (demolition costs would be so high that there would be no money left over for replacing it!). But things are looking up for those who appreciate the building's history, architectural style, and plentiful ornate statues. A recent cleaning has erased decades of soot and dirt, revealing a gleaming white marble and granite facade. Efforts are also underway to restore interior rooms as well. But the best way to learn more about this unusual building is to take a tour -- in person or online.
