Re-introduction to City Hall Statues, This Time Outside
ABC-LHS #085-1 Statues Outside City Hall...
... are eight. I talked about the 250 statues inside and attached to Philadelphia's City Hall in ABC:LHS #018-1. Outside at ground level are eight named statues, including two Civil War generals, a martyred US president, a civil rights hero, a merchant king, and two others. Industrialist / capitalist / philanthropist Matthias Baldwin and John Christian Bullitt, the lawyer who rewrote the city's charter are at Laurel Hill East. It's their stories and two others you'll here about in this episode.
