Though built as a lodging house, in the twentieth century the building was used as a hotel and a base for several non-profit groups. By the late 1990s, when the Friends of Benjamin Franklin House were granted the freehold to 36 Craven Street from the British government, the property was in dire condition. The Board, management team, numerous organisations and volunteers worked together to realise a dynamic museum and educational facility highlighting the timeless relevance of Benjamin Franklin and the tumultuous times in which he lived.
