Alfred C. Harrison was a rich motherfucker born from a long line of rich motherfuckers. He helped run his dad's Franklin Sugar Refinery and had made mad stacks on top of his already huge family fortune. In 1893, both him and his father Charles built office buildings in Center City. His father's was done first, a little seven-storey box at 10th and Market. His dad wanted it there because the location was close to the new City Hall that had begun construction and the new Reading Terminal. He called it the Harrison Building. <br /><br />Alfred Craven Harrison<br />Birth: 1845<br />Philadelphia<br />Philadelphia County<br />Pennsylvania, USA Death: Jul. 30, 1927<br />Philadelphia<br />Philadelphia County<br />Pennsylvania, USA <br />Graduated from UPenn in 1864. Sugar Refiner. Director, Western Savings Fund; Philadelphia National Bank; Philadelphia Country Club; Rittenhouse Club.<br />Travelled to Dutch Borneo 1897-98 with Hiram Milliken Hiller<br /><br />? Like many combat soldiers, Private First Class Alfred C. Harrison kept a diary of his experiences, writing descriptions of the French people and countryside, noting variations in the weather, and recording the constant boom of guns in the distance. In order to disguise his diary in the event that he was captured behind enemy lines, he wrote his journal entries on scraps of paper and kept them tucked into the lining of his trousers. After the war, he was awarded a Silver Star for his bravery in the trenches.<br /><br /><br />
