Old State House

 

The Old State House is the oldest and most significant public building on the Freedom trail. The balcony pictured in the back of Steve and Conner is where the first reading of the Declaration of Independence to the people of Boston took place in 1776. 200 years later, Queen Elizabeth 11 standing on the very same balcony, surrounded by thousands of cheering Americans who gathered to celebrate our bicentennial.
