The central office of Marshall Dennehey Warner Coleman & Goggin is located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania at 2000 Market Street, just blocks from iconic City Hall. The dynamic growth and entrepreneurial spirit of our firm is paralleled by the intensified business spirit of Philadelphia, the home of many health, legal, manufacturing, architectural and engineering enterprises.
Philadelphia is the nation's fifth largest metropolitan area and is the second largest city on the East Coast. It boasts the presence of some 49 colleges and universities, 24 teaching hospitals and a state-of-the-art telecommunications and information system.
The contrast between the historical aspects of Philadelphia, with such notable attractions as the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and the Betsy Ross House, and its new and growing skyline, consisting of such ambitious modern structures as Liberty Place and other skyscrapers, is quite striking.
Philadelphia is the home of a number of "firsts" in America, including:
- 1731 - First library in America, the Philadelphia Library, was founded by Benjamin Franklin.
- 1736 - First American fire-fighting company was called the Union.

- 1777 - First American flag was made by Elizabeth (Betsy) Ross at her home on 239 Arch Street.
- 1779 - First American university was The University of Pennsylvania (one year before Harvard).
- 1790 - First capital of the United States was Philadelphia until it was moved to Washington in 1800.
- 1805 - First art museum and school of fine arts was the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
- 1809 - First American theatre was the Walnut Street Theatre (still active today).
- 1874 - First American zoo was established at 34th Street and Girard Avenue.
- 1932 - First cheesesteak was invented by the legendary "King of Steaks," Pat Olivieri (concession in South Philadelphia is still in operation).
