Rehabilitating Philadelphia's "fourth corner"
It looks like the long-overdue face-lift for Franklin Square (tragically nestled next to the highway entrance and police headquarters), NE of four symmetric parks in Center City, is about to get rolling.
Plans call for repairing and renovating the central circular fountain, installed in the 1830s and nonfunctional for decades. New walkways, lighting and plantings will be installed, along with a Philadelphia-themed carousel and miniature golf course. There will also be a food concession.They want to have it all in place by July...
. . .
The carousel and miniature golf will be paid attractions, but access to the rest of the square, including two new playgrounds and several picnic areas, will be free.
