So you already knew about the Phillies, the Eagles and the cheesesteak. But did you know that Philadelphia was the first capitol of America before Washington, D.C.? How about the fact that the metropolis grid pattern with straight streets was conceived here by founder William Penn?
No?
If not that’s okay, you’ll have plenty of chances to brush up on your history of the fourth largest city in America here at Partyclique Philly. The city of independence is a city as cultural and cosmopolitan as NY, Chicago or L.A..And what better place to start than the tower that broke the records and the rules in Philly Town. One Liberty Place.
Before Liberty Place, by gentlemen’s agreement, no structure could stand higher than the brim of Billy Penn’s statue on top of city hall. All that changed in the 80s when One Liberty Place pierced the imaginary ceiling with its razor sharp point followed closely by its sequel Two Liberty Place and myriad of highrises that now dot Market Street and downtown.
Enjoy these breathtaking views from the 52nd floor of this civic and statewide landmark tower.
