Answer a question about this article:
The city's location was chosen, in part, for being within 11 mi (18 km) of Isaac Hunter's Tavern, a popular tavern frequented by the state legislators. No known city or town existed previously on the chosen city site. Raleigh is one of the few cities in the United States that was planned and built specifically to serve as a state capital. Its original boundaries were formed by the downtown streets of North, East, West and South streets. The plan, a grid with two main axes meeting at a central square and an additional square in each corner, was based on Thomas Holme's 1682 plan for Philadelphia.
Why is Isaac Hunter's Tavern popular?

Svar på en fråga om denna artikel: Stadens läge valdes delvis för att vara inom 18 km från Isaac Hunter's Tavern, en populär krog som besöktes av de statliga lagstiftarna. Ingen känd stad eller ort fanns tidigare på den valda stadsplatsen. Raleigh är en av få städer i USA som planerades och byggdes specifikt för att fungera som delstatshuvudstad. Dess ursprungliga gränser bildades av de centrala gatorna i norr, öst, väst och syd. Planen, ett rutnät med två huvudaxlar som möttes vid ett centralt torg och en ytterligare fyrkant i varje hörn, byggde på Thomas Holmes plan från 1682 för Philadelphia. Varför är Isaac Hunters Tavern populär?
