Benjamin Franklin is known for many things. He invented bifocals, suggested watertight compartments in ships, discovered the connection between electricity and lightning, invented the lightning rod, invented the Franklin stove, established the first fire company, invented an odometer, and he made the first library. Today, with many buildings named after him, many museums dedicated to him, and even the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, Philadelphia is the city that honors him the most clearly. Hope this helped!
