Demolition?

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The infobox says Walnut Street Prison was closed in 1838, does anyone know when it was actually demolished? Was it taken down right away, or was it used for another purpose? Elsquared (talk) 06:37, 25 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

In the "Architecture" section, I'm going to remove the passage that begins with "Overcrowding undermined the goal...." and ends with "....and New Jersey (Trenton in 1798)." This exact same text also appears under "Success of the Jail". Elsquared (talk) 03:20, 29 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
