Someone’s Hiding a Bunch of George Washington’s Stuff at a Top Secret Location Near Philadelphia


A recent announcement clued us into plans to build a $150 million, 110,000-square-foot super museum in Philly’s historic district dedicated to the American Revolution. R. Scott Stephenson—the curator of the planned Museum of the American Revolution—recently took some time to show off the collection of historic artifacts that will occupy the museum when it opens in late 2015. The thousands of items are being stored in a climate-controlled room in an anonymous facility somewhere outside of Philadelphia. Our guess is that they’re probably being housed in a building marked “DEFINITELY NOT THE HIDING SPOT FOR THOUSANDS OF HISTORIC ARTIFACTS.” [Boston.com]
