From the Philadelphia World / Areas

West Philadelphia

West Philadelphia brings together university campuses, Victorian housing and landscapes along the Schuylkill. It works best for travelers seeking a district where collections and historic green spaces can form a full day.

West Philadelphia

Why go

Plan West Philadelphia around a district where collections and historic green spaces can form a full day. Its defining thread is university campuses, Victorian housing and landscapes along the Schuylkill. Penn and Drexel create dense institutional corridors. Set one museum as the timed anchor.

What to look for

  • Penn and Drexel create dense institutional corridors.
  • The Woodlands introduces a large historic landscape within the city grid.

Useful to know

  • Set one museum as the timed anchor.
  • Use trolleys or buses for sites south and west of the campuses.
