A nice small park near Penns Landing. Attractions are the Irish Memorial Sculpture and the Scottish Immigrants Monument. There is an off-leash fenced area where the local dogs come to play. If youre in the area, I recommend stopping in the park.

My favorite park in the city, someone upkeeps it really well. It feels like someones backyard and you forget youre in the city. I miss the hammock swing!

Truth be told, I-95 runs right underneath it so the noise is taxing. But its an Irish memorial and I am (of) Irish (descent). Plus you can look over Penns Landing to the Delaware river and the Garden State (NJ)...

Very impressive and emotional moving, the Irish Memorial. Scottish statue is interesting and moving too. Both enphatize the aim of welcoming and the community spirit. I suggest to visit this place.

Beautifully maintained park in memoriam of the Irish potato famine, and the wave of immigration it caused, shaping the city of Philadelphia. The bronze statue is stunning and a sight to be seen by those with Irish heritage and every person with an immigration story in their family tree. Both the Irish and American flags are maintained quarterly by charitable organizations and private contributors. A must see ceremony takes place each saint Patricks day.

Depends on where on 95 you are could be in a work getting done back up because 95 will still be getting worked on 100 years from now (true story) or just a regular back up its a shocker for it to be normal during the day only late at night is there no traffic
