Last Wednesday, May 11, Philly got a new park on the waterfront, the Race Street Pier
Amen.
The Philly waterfront has been in need of something like this for decades. The park is beautiful and poeple are already enjoying it.
I got a sneak-peek of the new park at a fundraiser held there for arts programming on the waterfront. Great food, hooch, entertainment...
...and the breeze of a clear and warm night blowing through the blades of green grass and the limbs of the trees and over a running Delaware River.
You can read the story I wrote for the Weekly Press.
You can also check out the video. You'll notice that the intro does not take place in the ol' Pen & Lens study. I had to do this one on the fly and this greenhouse was the quietest place I could find and make deadline.
