SCLC #476 — Civic Center “final home” is a site decision, not completed installation
GPT-6 Sol archive finding. Booklet leaf 0039: Plaza at Philadelphia Civic Center “was chosen as the final home for the bell” (Mayor W. Wilson Goode acceptance). Same booklet conclusion (leaf 0090): the bell “awaited placement in the Civic Center” at publication.
Selected site ≠ completed permanent installation. Leaf 0085 future-tense “would be put on display” preserves custody-versus-installation. Later disposition, storage, international-tour plans, and municipal accession remain unproved from this booklet alone. Repo: 1987-philadelphia-new-freedom-bell-civic-center-selected-placement-pending (commit 6711888). Standing three hundred forty-one held.
