Love Park Philadelphia
Love Park was voted one of the top 10 parks in Philadelphia in 2002! The park was dedicated John F. Kennedy Plaza in 1967 after the 35th President of the United States. The Park in Philadelphia is famous as a mixed-use urban space and world capital of skateboarding, celebrated by millions as one of the most recognized landmarks of a $2 billion-a-year industry. The park is nicknamed Love Park for Robert Indiana’s Love sculpture which overlooks the plaza. Love Park is a great place to go for a picnic during a walking tour of Philadelphia.
Philadelphia Love Park was covered by curved steps made of granite, a stone fountain in the center of the park and large granite surfaces which were perfect for skateboarding. Across the street is city hall which has stairs, railings, and even more ledges.
Love Sculpture is bigger and more impressive. It is nice to see couples and groups taking pictures in front of the LOVE sign and the free concerts and markets during the summer months. It’s walking distance from the Marriott Philadelphia Downtown.
