[edit] Criticism & Controversy

I'm originally from Philly and I remember when they were redeveloping Independence Mall, there was some controversy over building on land that the state had once condemned because of the need for more greenspace in Center City (also taken away for the visitor center and the huge new Liberty Bell pavilion)

Also, I've been at the NCC a few times and I personally think its exhibitions far oversimplify complex political and legal issues for fear of patronizing the relatively constitutionally uninformed masses. The result is a pretty juvenile museum. Does anyone know of any sourceable criticism of the Center along these lines? 24.207.160.25 07:05, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
