Views show an architectural model of City Hall designed by John McArthur, Jr. Features a dome instead of the tower that was eventually constructed. One view includes a model of Independence Hall to give a sense of proportion. City Hall built 1871-1901 on Penn Square.
From 1873 to 1875, Cremer documented the construction of Philadelphia's City Hall in a series of stereographs produced for the Commissioner for the Erection of the Public Building.
