  • Ben Franklin Parkway and Independence Mall Patch Programs
    Ben Franklin Parkway and Independence Mall Patch Programs 1 Independence Mall Patch Program Introduction – Philadelphia’s History William Penn, a wealthy Quaker from London earned most of his income from land he owned in England and Ireland. He rented the land for use as farmland even though he could have made much more money renting it for commercial purposes. He considered the rent he collected from the farms to be less corrupt than commercial wealth. He wanted to build such a city made up of farmland in Pennsylvania. As soon as William Penn received charter for Pennsylvania, Penn began to work on his dream by advertising that he would establish, “ A large Towne or City” on the Delaware River. Remembering the bubonic plague in London (1665) and the disastrous fire of 1666, Penn wanted, “ A Greene county Towne, which would never be burnt, and always be wholesome.” In 1681, William Penn announced he would layout a “Large Towne or City in the most convenient place upon the river for health and navigation.” Penn set aside 10,000 acres of land for the Greene townie on the Delaware and he stretched the town to reach the Schuylkill so that the city would face both rivers. He acquired one mile of river frontage on the Schuylkill parallel to those on the Delaware. Thus Philadelphia became a rectangle 1200 acres, stretching 2 miles in the length from east to west between the 3 rivers and 1 mile in the width North and South. William Penn hoped to create a peaceful city. When he arrived in 1682, he made a Great Treaty of Friendship with the Lenni Lenape Indians on the Delaware.

Anthropology Senior Theses. Paper 150. This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/anthro_seniortheses/150 For more information, please contact [email protected]. The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia Abstract The Barnes Foundation presents an example of a Museum art collection that—with its move from its original Lower Merion location to Center City Philadelphia on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway—has finally achieved its (stated) goal of becoming a more accessible and open institution. However, the relocation of a museum to a more accessible location does not create instant open/public accessibility. This is an examination of the history of the Barnes Foundation, its inception, along with Philadelphia’s yearning form an additional upscale elite clientele. My goal is to evaluate the new Barnes vis-à-vis its original mission as it settles into its new facility. I examine various critical periods in the history of the Barnes including its function and mission before and immediately after the death of Dr. Albert Barnes, the fiscally embattled period following the death of Dr. Barnes successors, and the circumstances surrounding its move to its current Center City location where it has been recently relocated adjacent to another cultural jewel, the Rodin Museum. My argument is that the new Barnes Foundation museum is less about fulfilling or continuing the original mission or Dr.

The full report is available in PDF format at http://pps.org/vineonline 3 Logan Circle Turning Logan Circle into one of the best public spaces in the world It is not an exaggeration to say that Logan Circle could become the greatest, most rec- ognized and popular public space and attraction in Philadelphia and one of the best in the world. The Swann fountain is probably the grandest in the country and its location, as the centerpiece of the city's most prominent institutions, makes it unique and perhaps unparalleled anywhere. However, the existing situation couldn't be much worse. The fountain is nearly inaccessi- ble to pedestrians, being cut off by five lanes of fast moving traffic. It is surrounded by unused parkland. The institutions themselves seem to be hiding as well, and very few of them have banners, outdoor activities or other attention grabbers on their exteriors. Yet there is a great opportunity to make changes very quickly and without a lot of money given the existing characteristics of the users and spaces in Logan Circle.

  • Origins of the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, 1848 to 1876
    Art and Industry in Philadelphia: Origins of the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, 1848 to 1876 o A TWENTIETH-CENTURY PHILADELPHIAN, Moore College of Art and Design seems a permanent fixture on the city's cultural Tlandscape. Now on Logan Square with the even more venerable Franklin Institute and Academy of Natural Sciences, from 1880 to 1959 Moore occupied an imposing building at Broad and Master Streets, north of City Hall. Originally known as the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, it began in 1848 as a charitable effort to train "needy and deserving" young women in textile and wallpaper design, wood engraving, and other salable artistic skills. During the 1850s, governance passed from the woman founder to men of the city's financial and manufacturing elite. Curriculum and policies frequently reflected both conflict and com- promise among the differing goals of managers, faculty, and students. By 1919 the school claimed thousands of alumnae. After its merger in 1932 with the Moore Institute of Art, Science, and Industry, this experiment in vocational art training continued to flourish as a women's college dedicated to commercial art, in an era when many other single-sex institutions foundered under the impact of changing attitudes towards coeducation.1 This article is drawn from a dissertation in progress, a detailed narrative of the school's early years appeared in the author's M A thesis, "The Philadelphia School of Design for Women, 1848 to 1876" (University of Delaware, 1989) In partial return for numerous intellectual

  • Planning for Growth Benjamin Franklin Parkway
    CENTER CITY: PLANNING FOR GROWTH BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PARKWAY The proposals for enhancing the Benjamin Franklin Parkway have emerged from over five years of collaborative work with the Parkway Council Foundation, the Fairmount Park Commission, the Philadelphia Art Commission and the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society. In 2003, a new conceptual master plan was prepared by the Olin Partnership. Additional design and traffic engineering work was done by Brown & Keener Bressi, Cope Linder Architects, Lager Raabe Skafte Landscape Architects, Kise Straw & Kolodner, Urban Engineers, Cloud Gehshan Associates, The Lighting Practice and Grenald Waldron Associates. The advancement and implementation of these enhancements is anticipated soon. B.

Understanding the impact that science and technology have on our everyday lives has never been as important to our society as it is today. A decade ago, the idea that every mobile phone would have a built-in camera wouldn’t have seemed feasible. Gene editing and its vast promise for the future of medicine was on the horizon. In 2016, astronomers discovered a new planet orbiting beyond Pluto, and Pokémon Go took the world by storm with its innovative and addictive use of augmented reality. Reflecting on the past helps us understand how we got to where we are today— and where we might go in the future. What follows is an inspirational reflection on our 2016. It was a year of growth and planning that has begun to set the stage for our 200th anniversary in 2024. It was a year in which we laid the groundwork for the Institute’s new Strategic Plan 2017–2024, which will guide the organization over the next eight years. Among its pillars are commitments to providing a world-class visitor experience; to science communication and helping adults understand critical issues so they can make informed decisions; and to impactful education programs that inspire interest in STEM careers for underserved children.
