Description: This engraving by William Russell Birch shows Congress Hall (left), which was occupied by Congress from 1790 to 1800, when Philadelphia was capital of the nation. Here, too, was the site of President Washington’s second inauguration in 1793 and President John Adams’s inauguration in 1797. Independence Hall, where the Constitutional Convention was held, is just out of view.
