Schuylkill River Park

The Schuylkill River Park is the largest green space in Center City West and serves a wide variety of active and passive recreational needs.  The park includes basketball courts, a playground, recreation center, community garden, tennis courts and outdoor pool.  It also is a newly certified Level 1 Arboretum with over 50 different species of trees.  

The latest green addition is a large native perennial garden that hosted an enthusiastic array of pollinators in 2024, its first season.  Mountain mint, asters, goldenrod and coneflowers were special favorites.
