Nutter, City Council President Darrell Clarke, Deputy Mayor Michael DiBerardinis, PA Secretary of Transportation Barry Schoch, PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Deputy Secretary John Giordano and other funders to cut the ribbon on this new $4.9 million park.
Sister Cities Park on Logan Square has been transformed into a richly planted, well-illuminated and welcoming public space as part of the $17.1 million makeover of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The newly designed park offers a variety of amenities for people of all ages 365 days a year – from a children’s discovery garden and boat pond, to a café & visitor center and a plaza that features a one-of-a-kind fountain commemorating Philadelphia’s Sister Cities program.
