The plaza it's located in was once known as "Printing House Square" due to the offices and presses of numerous newspapers which were situated in the area. Franklin is holding a copy of his <i>Pennsylvania Gazette</i>. The statue's pedestal says: "Benjamin Franklin / 1706-1790 / Printer Patriot Philosopher Statesman / Presented by Albert De Groot to the Press and Printers of New York City / Unveiled January 17, 1872 / Ernst Plassman, sculptor" </p> |
