You begin at Benjamin Franklin’s grave outside Christ Church Burial Ground, the air colder near the stone, and the city’s gaslights pooling in the hollows of old brick. This self-guided Liberty Ghost Walk threads through narrow lanes, past Georgian townhouses and taverns where colonial voices still push at the windows.
