    Christ Church Philadelphia

    Where
    N. 2nd Street and Market Street Philadelphia PA 19106
    Christ Church was established on 15 November, 1695, and for 66 years was the only Church of England parish in the city of Philadelphia. The present building was started in 1727 and completed in 1744. The tower and steeple, financed in part by lotteries managed by Benjamin Franklin was completed in 1754. The building is an outstanding example of colonial architecture in the Georgian spirit.
    The church today is still an active Episcopal parish and also the location of daily talks for visitors about the history of the church.
