Both first-time travelers and returning natives discover and rediscover a diverse, neighborhood-based metropolis with a downtown that’s easy to navigate on one’s own or via public transit. Philly regularly receives raves in The New York Times, Bon Appétit, Travel + Leisure, USA Today and Condé Nast Traveler, yet doesn’t stand one bit for pretense. Here are the basics any visitor to Philadelphia should know: Well-Planned City: • Layout – Seventeenth-century city planner William Penn envisioned the grid of streets that comprise Philadelphia’s downtown, Center City. Perpendicular streets run north-south (they’re numbered) and east-west (many named for trees: Walnut, Locust, Spruce). What would be 1st Street is named Front Street. What would be 14th Street is Broad Street. Two rivers, the Schuylkill and the Delaware (dividing Pennsylvania from New Jersey), form the western and eastern boundaries of Center City; Vine Street and South Street form north-south boundaries. Today, Penn continues to give direction to the city. His statue atop City Hall points northeast. • Exceptions to the Layout – The 101-year-old, mile-long Benjamin Franklin Parkway cuts diagonally through Center City’s grid, from near City Hall, past the famous LOVE Park to the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Public art, exhibits & festivals create a 14-month celebration @visitphilly. http://vstphl.ly/2uzWiR2 ONE HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY FOR BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PARKWAY WILL BE BIG Centennial Brings 14 Months Of Exhibitions & Events Inside & Out PHILADELPHIA, October 4, 2017 – Philadelphia’s cultural powerhouse and preeminent boulevard, the Benjamin Franklin Parkway began its 100th birthday celebration September 8, 2017. Parkway 100 is the city’s 14-month celebration taking place both inside the venerable institutions that line the thoroughfare and outside among its fountains, gardens and public art. It ends November 16, 2018. The diagonal Benjamin Franklin Parkway stretches one mile from near City Hall to the Philadelphia Museum of Art at the edge of Fairmount Park. Planner Paul Philippe Cret and designer Jacques Gréber modeled the thoroughfare after the Champs-Élysées of their native country. After a long, drawn-out planning and construction process, it officially opened in October 1918. The arduous yet bold vision ushered in a new era of urban design in America: the City Beautiful Movement. For the last century, the attractions, green spaces and public art of the Parkway Museums District have captivated residents and visitors. The buildings on the Parkway’s borders are a who’s-who of culture, and the stretch is street-party central, with massive events such as the Fourth of July concert, Budweiser Made In America Festival and Thanksgiving Day Parade taking place throughout the year.

  • My Way Calder in Paris
    THE STATE OF LETTERS 589 us are hard to take in. Or, once taken in, it is hard to keep the wall in perspec- tive for two reasons: one, because the break ofthe Romans witb Britain was a clean one. Around A.D. 400 the Romans left for good, and their memory faded so fast that, in tbe centuries that followed, the great illiterate major- ity thought the wall was the work of giants: "there were giants in the earth in those days," it was written in Genesis, so it must have been so. Second, the Latin legacy that included the documentation of the empire under the Christian cburcb was dismpted by paganism and tlie disorder of centuries before it was taken up by antiquarians in tbe sixteenth century. Bede, the monk of Jarrow, near the eastern end of tbe wall, who died in 735, wrote in A History ofthe English Church and People that, before they departed, the Romans built a stone wall to replace a turf rampart built by the emperor Severus from sea to sea: "This famous and still conspicuous wall was built from public and private resources, with the Britons lending assistance. It is eight feet in breadth, and twelve in height; and, as can be clearly seen to this day, ran straight from east to west." No mention of Hadrian, and little agree- ment with the time scale established by modem scholarship. History is written by tbe winners, said Ceorge Orwell. The Romans cer- tainly were winners, as appears in their accounts of Hadrian. But that is all.

  • IFEA Pinnacle Awards 61) Best Media Relations Campaign
    IFEA Pinnacle Awards 61) Best Media Relations Campaign a. Introduction The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society’s annual PHS Philadelphia Flower Show is the world’s longest-running and largest horticultural event. The Flower Show attracts extensive media attention and serves as one of Philadelphia’s signature events. This year’s extraordinary presentation was held March 1 through 9 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. The 2014 theme, “ARTiculture,” celebrated the fusion of art and horticulture. Beautiful flowers, gardens and landscapes have always been an inspiration for artists, while great horticultural design has become a form of living art. In an unprecedented collaboration of Flower Show designers and the nation’s great art museums, the Pennsylvania Convention Center was turned into a 10-acre living canvas of exquisite landscapes, gardens and floral arrangements. Audiences for the Flower Show have mainly come from the Greater Philadelphia region. They generally consist of people interested in gardening and horticultural activities. Many of them learn about the show through gardening media, including print, digital and broadcast outlets. They also learn about show attractions from mainstream broadcast media, including the show’s television partner, 6ABC, or through their daily newspapers, weekly neighborhood papers, online publications, the Flower Show website, and PHS social media platforms. The theme for the 2014 Flower Show provided an opportunity to reach a broad new audience of people interested in the visual arts. The partnerships with museums located across the United States, from Los Angeles to Raleigh, N.C., to Washington, D.C., to New York, and beyond, also opened up new possibilities to reach audiences who were not familiar with the Flower Show and media that saw fascinating new angles to one of the nation’s singular events.
