Philadelphia
Delegates meet at that Constitutional Convention to amend the Articles of Confederation.
The Constitutional Convention was held at Independence Hall, in Philadelphia.
The Constitutional Convention met in Philadelphia from May to September of 1787. Delegates from the different colonies came here to discuss the problems facing the government of the United States. From this convention, the U.S. Constitution emerged and was adopted.
Some of the disagreements at the constitutional convention were that the delegates didn't want to make a whole new form of government. They didn't want it to be to strong or weak so that one state was more superior than the other. The delegates resolved this by doing more than just revising the Articles of Confederation and wrote a whole new constition.
