Arts & Culture

The Philadelphia Museum of Art is more than just a landmark. It houses an impressive collection of Art ranging from ancient to modern, and including a Japanese tea garden with tea houses, and a replica of a European monastery courtyard with a peaceful fountain in the center
Awesome collection. Impossible to take in all of it in one visit

Pay-what-you-will entry to the largest collection of Rodin structure sculptures outside of Paris! Just past the Art Museum And before the Barnes museumon the Ben Franklin Parkway, (on your left as you head into the city from the apartment)

Truly spectacular collection of modern art. A private collection essentially stolen by the city so that its citizens and the rest of the world could enjoy. But at least the museum recreates the interior dimensions of the home of Mr. Barnes, and precisely how he had it arranged, down to fractions of an inch. Last of the 3 Art museums on the Parkway as you head into center city from the apartment

Food scene

Ethiopian bar/restaurant with delicious vegetarian and meat options, including lamb. Casual indoor or outdoor dining with privacy barriers built outside for pandemic dining. Solid selection of beers with some of the best prices in the city Offer an obvious solution to the scorching Ethiopian heat  you can expect (or opt out of) with most dishes

One of the best burgers you can find in the city, and it is right across the street! This place started as a food cart and has now even won awards for its cheesesteaks—also some of the best in the city…

Hard to mess because it’s right downstairs, but in case you didn’t know, this place has amazing gourmet sandwiches and a ridiculous selection of takeout beer to put the icing on any travelers cake. It also has a rotating tap list that they will offer to serve in plastic cups if you want to enjoy it outside on the Avenue

Legendary brunch spot, and a favorite for locals and tourists alike. If you go at a popular brunch time (ie– Sat/Sun late AM) be prepared to wait in line unless you get there closer to breakfast time! It is right around the corner, and is the closest restaurant to the apartment. Also a worthy consideration for takeout. Just be prepared for enormous portions!

This historic prison was a revolution in thinking about criminal justice. It had running water before the White House, and For a short time held notorious Chicago mobster, Al Capone. Also a stop for the Philadelphia double-decker tour bus (hop on hop off)

Typically this is the nearest hop on hop off stop for the Philadelphia double-decker tour bus. It also houses rotating special exhibits for the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The beautiful roof of this building is visible from the upper deck of the apartment

From mini golf to a classic carousel, this spot is a great stop for date night with or without the kids! Sitting right across the street from the Ben Franklin Bridge it offers an opportunity to combine with an evening hike up the historic bridge, which offers spectacular views of Philadelphia and Camden from its apex over the Delaware River.
