This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, an event that jumpstarted the gay-rights revolution, a movement with strong Philadelphia roots. The City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection joins cities across the world by marking the milestone with a jam-packed weekend of Pride events in mid-June, including the annual Philly Dyke March, a floating dance party on the Delaware River and the weekend’s main event, the PrideDay LGBT Parade and Festival, debuting a Philadelphia Pioneers On The Road To Stonewall float. The extended summer season sees a slew of international stars coming through town for live stage shows. Glam rocker Adam Lambert joins Queen for a night of music in South Philly, and lesbian comedian Hannah Gadsby hits Philly on her first U.S. tour. Philadelphia also hosts the nation’s largest Trans Wellness Conference and Stonewall @ 50, a thoughtful exhibition of works by LGBTQ artists that recounts the Stonewall Riots and its impact a half century later. Here’s a look at what to expect from Philadelphia’s LGBTQ scene this summer: Essential LGBTQ Pride Celebrations: • Philadelphia Pioneers On The Road To Stonewall Float Creation – For four days at Cherry Street Pier, the public can observe final construction of the Philadelphia Pioneers On The Road To Stonewall float, a creation of VISIT PHILADELPHIA®, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Dr.

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.

    PHILADELPHIA A CITY THAT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONAL VISITORS GUIDE GREETINGS FROM PHL First up: a few things you need to know about our airport. We’re convenient. Once you’re here, you’re in Philadelphia. We’re only seven miles (11 km) from Center City Philadelphia and 20 minutes by train. And it’s a quick drive to almost anywhere: a world- renowned museum, a corporate HQ, a craft-beer brewpub, and yes, the mountains and the ocean. We’re big. We welcome 30 million passengers a year via 130+ non-stop destinations worldwide. We’re fun. Travel is exciting. So is traveling when you can enjoy 180 local and national retail shops, restaurants and eateries. All surrounded by a collection of Philadelphia’s best art exhibits and entertainers. INTERNATIONAL ARRIVALS HALL We’re now. Two-thousand power outlets and USB ports mean more movie watching. Plus, free WiFi keeps you connected at 1,000+ iPad stations, even at your gate. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT PHL.ORG Philadelphians love oil paintings, famous declarations, al fresco dining and opera. We also like to think there’s no greater delicacy than meat and melted cheese on a roll. Call it a little something for everyone. So if you’re planning a trip to the States, here’s the deal: Philadelphia isn’t New York (more manageable, less sticker shock) or Washington, DC (more fun, less politics). We are what we are. And what we are is an American city that’s unapologetically candid about everything from street art and historical artifacts to the best way to navigate the city (it’s called shoe leather).

    InterPark LLC presents for your consideration this Request for Proposals LOVE Park Improvement Project 1 August 2014 LOVE Park Garage & Park Improvement Project RFP Page 0 SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION InterPark, LLC (“InterPark”), working with The City of Philadelphia (“City”) and UGP-Love Park, LLC (“Garage Owner” and, collectively with InterPark and City, the “Client”), is seeking proposals for architectural, engineering and landscape architectural services from professional firms (each, a "Respondent") for the following project in Center City, Philadelphia: "LOVE Park Improvement Project" This Project consists of redesigning John F. Kennedy Plaza, more commonly referred to as LOVE Park (“Park”), which sits above an underground parking garage (“Garage”), and renovating or replacing the existing Fairmount Park Welcome Center building located in the southwest corner of the Park (“Welcome Center”). The scope also includes all Garage elements which “exhibit themselves” in the Park, i.e. stairs and elevators, headhouses and exhaust systems. Finally, the scope includes the separation of MEP services of the Municipal Services Building Loading Dock (“Loading Dock”), which is located within the physical structure of the Garage but serves the Municipal Services Building located at 1401 John F. Kennedy Boulevard, and the Garage. The Garage was owned by the City until June 2014, at which time it was purchased by Garage Owner. The City continues to own the Park. InterPark, an affiliate of Garage Owner, is managing this Request for Proposals, the resulting consultant contract(s) and much of the eventual construction. Built in the late 1960's, the 810 space underground Garage is a cast in place structure, the roof of which, a structural concrete platform, supports the Park above.
