Getting Here and Around
Boathouse Row on Kelly Drive and portions of West River are easily reached on foot from the Philadelphia Museum of Art. To reach the Zoo or the Please Touch Museum, you will need to use a car or take SEPTA or the PHLASH. Both the zoo and Please Touch are less than 15-minutes' drive from Center City West.
