Description | Beautiful day on the Parkway
Today's Benjamin Franklin Parkway would no doubt make its namesake proud. Extraordinary museums, exceptional schools, businesses and residences line a colorful, diagonal mile from LOVE Park at 16th Street to the steps of the Art Museum. The Parkway serves as a vibrant setting for many major events throughout the year, including the US Pro Cycling race each June, 4th of July fireworks, charity walks, and several parades. Philadelphians and visitors alike visit the Parkway Museums District to explore the cultural institutions, run beneath a canopy of international flags, and admire the unique outdoor sculptures and fountains.
