Sidewalk Repair In Progress
The sidewalks around the perimeter of Clark Park have long been in disrepair and it has been a major area of focus for Friends of Clark Park for a number of years. With that in mind we are excited to share that, thanks in part to our advocacy, the city has kicked off a project to repair and replace many of the sidewalks throughout the park. This project will replace over 10,000 square feet of sidewalk and is a huge investment in our park and our West Philly community.Â
This project could not have become a reality without the great partnership and tireless effort of City Councilmember Jamie Gauthier and her office. She has been a tremendous friend of Clark Park and her office was essential in securing the investment to make this project a reality. Work started on the project this week and you will likely see continued sections being replaced over the next few weeks throughout the park.Â
We are very proud and thankful to all of those across the Friends who have put countless hours into advocating for this project. We also wanted to say huge thank you to Councilmember Gauthier for her support. Please enjoy the new sidewalk!
