Just steps away from the hustle and bustle of center city lies the Reading viaduct, an abandoned railway that is easily accessible from 13th and Noble Street.

Founded by globe-trotting 18th-century pharmacist John Bartram, the garden is a well-maintained and idyllic retreat, with massive sycamores, riverside walks, and flower-lined paths.

Situated smack dab in the middle of bustling, boho Passyunk Square, The East Passyunk Singing Fountain gets its name from the 30's and 40's standards coming from hidden speakers around the fountain's landscaping (Sinatra is frequently on loop, due to the neighborhood's Italian influence).

Any local can tell you that putting this colossal monstrosity of a building at the intersection of Philadelphia's two main streets is inconvenient (to say the least) in a 21st century world.
