Valley Talks: "Envisioning a New Fairmount Park" with Harris M. Steinberg, FAIA
The New Fairmount Park, a recent study by PennPraxis, aims to create a vision and action plan for East and West Park to ensure that this unique 19th century watershed park, which includes the Wissahickon, remains relevant in the 21st century without undermining the relationship between public water and access to nature and their dual role in supporting urban life. Harris M. Steinberg will present the results of this study, undertaken for Philadelphia Parks & Recreation, funded by the William Penn Foundation, and produced in collaboration with the Parks and Recreation Commission and the Fairmount Park Conservancy.
Presented by Friends of the Wissahickon.
