Benjamin Franklin Museum

The Benjamin Franklin Museum lies beneath Franklin Court, the site of Franklin's house off Market Street, now part of Independence National Historical Park. Robert Venturi's steel ghost structure of 1976 outlines the vanished house above the museum, and the court's row houses hold a working printing office and a post office.
