We need your help in creating the Benjamin Franklin Parkway Action Plan – a plan that will focus actions we can accomplish in the short term (within three years).
The Department of Parks and Recreation, Penn Praxis and The Penn Project on Civic Engagement will be hosting four community meetings to discuss the kinds of programs and projects that might bring you and others to the Parkway more often and will enhance your experience of the Parkway. With your input we will begin to outline a set of projects that can be implemented in the next few years.
Meetings are happening between July 23rd and July 31st, all from 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm. RSVP to praxis@design.upenn.edu.

Add some f'ing retail.
There's nowhere to even buy a hotdog for chrissake.
I cannot make the meetings, but please consider making BFP more bike- and pedestrian-friendly. Particularly the Spring Garden Bridge (a key access point that ties the museums to the zoo and to West Philly) and Parkway coming from the bridge are extremely unsafe. The bike lane coming from the west disappears into a 6-lane road, three on each side.
