Revolutionary history grows here. This 4.5-acre green space is where colonists protested the Stamp Act and Washington first read the Declaration of Independence aloud. Today it's a leafy retreat with a restored 19th-century fountain, rotating public art installations, and a front-row view of America's oldest functioning city hall.
