Leaning tower of Philly? Founding fathers’ church gets grant

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The steeple at Philadelphia’s landmark Christ Church is leaning, and its supporting tower needs serious structural support.

The NEH announced the grant to Christ Church on Thursday. It’s one of 233 projects the endowment will fund across the country.
