A melange of wonder abounds in West Parkside: an historic neighborhood; the Centennial District; two lakes; a first-order stream; wildlife in the city; amazing statuary; vestiges of an open-air trolley through the park; a hidden pavilion in the trees; pervasive environmental injustice; and a native plant nursery (LandHealth’s very own!) built upon a former abandoned rail yard. Can you believe we can cover all this in a single walk? Join us Wednesday, August 16th, 4pm-6pm and see for yourself!
Location: Meet at the parking lot, SE corner, 49th Street and Parkside Avenue, 19131. Across from Fairmount Park. (Note: Between 48th and 50th Streets, NOT near Wynnefield Avenue)
Fee: A donation of $15 is recommended for our WonderWalks, though any amount is welcome! Donate
here with the name and date of the WonderWalk you are attending.
