Philadelphia Neighborhoods - Fairmount
Park Real Estate
Without a doubt, living in Philadelphia would be much less pleasant
if it weren't for the 8,500 landscaped acres of Fairmount Park. Along
with the usual amenities for picnicking, bike riding, hiking and tossing
a ball or frisbee, Fairmount Park offers the Mann Music Center and Robin
Hood Dell East, where outdoor concerts are held each summer, the Zoological
Gardens, the oldest zoo in the US, the historic Fairmount Park Houses,
and the charming structures along Boathouse Row. Other attractions include:
the Ellen Phillips Samuel Memorial Sculpture Garden on Kelly Drive,
featuring works like The Quaker and Birth of a Nation; the view from
Belmont Plateau; the 17th century shoin-style Japanese House and surrounding
gardens; Azalea Garden; the Waterworks which was completed in the early
1800s and now has been being restored.
