The Philly Inquirer used to be in their own building below -

Then they sold that and moved to a couple of floors in the old Strawbridge's department store, and more recently moved to a couple floors in the old Rohm & Haas building right near Independence Hall.

That Inquirer building now has the Philly police department in it.
