On the Cover

In the southwestern corner of Capitol Square, at the intersection of Ninth and

Franklin Streets, the red brick Bell Tower has stood since 1824. It was once

used for a guard house and the bell warned of fires. During the Civil War, the

bell sounded when Federal troops approached the city. More recently, it was an

office for Lt. Gov. Charles S. Robb (1978-82), and the Capitol Square Preservation

Council. It now serves as a Visitor Center for Virginia Touris
