The Benjamin Franklin Parkway

Getting Here and Around

The parkway is easily reached on foot from Rittenhouse Square, but is 30-minute walk from the far eastern sections of the Historic Area. SEPTA or the PHLASH also are good options to reach this neighborhood, particularly if you're planning on visiting the Philadelphia Museum of Art. If you have a car, it's also fairly easy to find parking on metered spaces along the parkway or north of the museum on Pennsylvania Avenue. The museum also has a parking structure with hundreds of spaces.
