Description
Philadelphia’s famed City Hall is an engineering, architectural, and sculptural masterpiece. Patterned after the Palais des Tuileries and the Louvre in Paris, it is an exceptional example of the Second Empire style. Completed in 1901, it required three decades to complete. It is the tallest masonry building without a steel structure and the largest municipal building in North America. In sheer size, City Hall was the largest building in the country until the Pentagon was completed in the mid 1940s. The massive tower is topped with a 27-ton, 37-foot statue of William Penn, which soars 548 feet above street level. Designed by the famous sculptor Alexander Calder, this statue is just one of the hundreds of interior and exterior sculptures Calder created to adorn City Hall.
