  • Bridesburg Riverfront Park Master Plan is complete!

    Our third Community Workshop was the public reveal of the Bridesburg Riverfront Park Master Plan for Bridesburg residents and public stakeholders. The final Park Master Plan incorporates the feedback from the previous Community Workshops and presents an inclusive, accessible park with a range of open and vegetated landscapes, beautiful park and river views, various programming opportunities at the plazas, lawns, and pavilions, and streetscape improvements for Orthodox Street. The plans are enthusiastically supported by the community, DRCC, and Philadelphia Parks & Recreation. Next steps include seeking funds for the design and construction of the Park and streetscape.
