Description:

This was where American Independence was born - where the Founding Fathers discussed the beginnings of the secession from Great Britain. The Georgian-style building was originally built in 1713, although restorations took place in subsequent centuries. This grand structure is one of the oldest public houses in the United States and its east balcony is where the Declaration of Independence was proclaimed from in 1776.
