The Drexel Brothers and Philadelphia Finance
An old sketch recounts the rise of the Drexel brothers in Philadelphia finance, noting their early Tyrolese artist founder, ties to stock and railroads, and a fortune near 25 to 30 million. It describes their marble stock exchange block on Chestnut Street opposite the old Hall of Congress and its proximity to the Bank of the United States and the Philadelphia library. The piece observes long lawyers’ offices along Third Street to Walnut and links Civil War era politics to Philadelphia’s frontier status and postwar shifts.
