The report summarizes all awards made to certified disadvantaged, minority and women-owned businesses in 2004, and reports on the actual dollars paid to these businesses. This year, for the first time, we have also made this report available to the public via CD-Rom. The report is also on our website at www.drpa.org/obdeo. In 2004, the Delaware River Port Authority spent $77.3 million, and paid $20.9 million or 27% to certified D/M/WBEs. While the Authority spent considerably less in 2004, our commitment to leveling the playing field for all businesses desiring to compete for contract opportunities remained firm. Since 1994, the year our Board approved our non-discrimination programs, the Delaware River Port Authority and the Port Authority Transit Corporation, collectively “the Authority,” have paid more than $170.5 million to disadvantaged, minority and women-owned businesses interested in competing for contract opportunities. We remain committed to taking affirmative steps to “level the playing field” for all businesses. -

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. -
