Old City Hall, located at Chestnut and 5th Streets in the Independence Hall complex of Independence National Historical Park in Center City Philadelphia, was built in 1790–91 in the Federal style. The architect was David Evans, Jr. Originally intended as Philadelphia's City Hall, it housed the Supreme Court of the United States from the completion of its construction in 1791 until 1800, when the national capital was moved to Washington, D.C.
