Thomas Bond House

In 1769, when Dr. Thomas Bond built this house and rented it to his son and namesake, the elder Bond was already a prominent Philadelphia physician and civic leader. Along with Benjamin Franklin, he helped to found the Pennsylvania Hospital and the American Philosophical Society.

Restored on the exterior to its 19th century appearance, this house now serves as a bed and breakfast inn.

Marker is on South 2nd Street south of Chestnut Street, on the left when traveling south.
