Unfortunately, Franklin's original account of this experiment only stated that it had been done in Philadelphia, without any mention of where or when it was done, or even by whom. The only statement that Franklin did so came 15 years after the fact from Joseph Priestley, a close friend who claimed to be writing down the verbal account of Franklin's. Priestley stated that Ben, when deciding to do the experiment, chose "to take a walk in the fields, in which there was a shed convenient for his purpose." This could have been just about anywhere in the Philadelphia area.
The record on this event is imperfect as the earliest record of it is from fifteen years later, but it appears to have happened on June 15, 1752.
